As I said, the way the reminders are done was a compromise between achieving reminders for those what wanted them vs not spending too much money on a complicated solution that departed too far off the core TiVo code, none of which was designed with reminders as part of the plan. I don't have an issue with this.
The arguments over whether it could have been differently have been done to death when Reminders were introduced, and don't see any reason to go over them again.
