Could I see some examples generated from these various software? It would help in addressing the issue.

Yep, those fancy titles and a buck will get you a cup of coffee... 😊.

I have been listening to and learning from Karen for almost 20 years. No one is shooting anyone. I am just a messenger myself.

I'm delighted to do what I can to help. If there is a systematic error in diverse implementations that is something we can address with formal guidance... and hope the developers pay attention and make it a priority.
