iwx cannot go onto the media because we are not permitted.

this is simply an after-market assistance which I think we may
have been mistaken to give the public.

If we increase the media for arbitrary payloads people want to shove
into it, it will become bigger and bigger for other people and
someone else will be negatively affected.  I do not want to spend my
life increasing this size over and over again.
