Note: I'm mainly counting the number of words only to keep track for myself, and to know when I've got to "PhD proportions" 🤓 But it may also give the reader some ideas of what investment of time is needed to read each post 🥴. For no-one's information, probably, other than my own, the current total word count is 57,732 words
