"Peity (sounds like deity)"

As someone who pronounces deity day-a-tee, I'm guessing you actually mean pee-a-tee and not pay-a-tee.

Yeah, I was hung up on that as well. Obviously no reflection on the product/code/whatever, but when you go with "sounds like", try to pick a word that can only be pronounced one possible way.

Day-a-tee sounds about right - but I'm not precious. It was a deliberate miss-spelling of "pie" with some other letters added on... and quite possibly a mistake.
