without saying anything in any way directly touching on the issue at
discussion, I would take great exception at the opnion that SrISrI's
alleged insensitivity could be blamed on his choice of a chandO-meter.

There might be a million ways of describing an impossible event; not
necessarily ascribable to the use of chandas or the lack there of.

That the chandas restricts expression is a fallacious argument. It does
not, in the hands of a skilled craftsman. On the other hand, it certainly
enhances the expression, if one is 'knowledgeable'.
