I contained my snarfing until:

"The ordinals 17, 42 and 6.12 are reserved to reduce confusion.

The ordinals 18 and 19 are reserved for the strings "Reserved" and "Unassigned" respectively.

Unfortunately the ordinal 20 was used by two earlier, competing proposals, and so can mean either "Color" or Colour". Implementations are encouraged to disambiguate based upon context."

At which point I audibly snarfed.

Your snarfing was the impetus for my snarf. Ergo, not all snarfing originates from user Angostura, but all of user Angostura's snarfing has historically beget my snarfs.
