How different we all are ;-) For me, this checksum bug is the least significant one in the whole list. I never had a calculator or other device with checksums so I never got used to it. And I am well beyond the age where I will spend half a night keying a program into a pocket calculator from a paper printout. Even less without any means to permanently store it afterwards. But 35 or so years ago when I spent entire nights typing assembly language programs (or even hexcodes) from early computer magazines into early home computers a checksum feature would have been of great help...
