Thanks for your opinion.  I reworded most of my original text in the
mail but missed this one.

I appreciate what Yaakov does but I bet these are not built in native
Cygwin mode so a host must be supplied.  In native mode the default is

The brewer is using a recipe to make the beer.  That doesn't mean the
recipe cannot be improved.  But in this case the brewer doesn't need to
change anything other than the suggestion of which host the recipe is
brewed on.
