Very funny. A ton of people, I suspect, will take this seriously.

If I may, let me suggest you add a note about your future plans to add backpropagation using Excel/Libreoffice macros, which "might allow users to train large-scale models from scratch within their lifetime."

I think it's feasible, even without macros! Just have to make our case to our advisors for it.
