Yeah, you're right, I forgot how messy it used to be. My brain is mostly in
2.0 mode, and just glosses over the differences. Just think what fun arguing
over RespondWith used to be.

I would have no argument with somebody that wanted to nail it down tighter
than that. The use case for returning multiple statements of the same type
never really existed, and is completely non-existent in 2.0.

I'll consider adding something about that to our profile, but I'd rather
just focus on coding 2.0 and making this all moot.
