That's what I suspect too, and that's why I wrote that the conversion is
pointless.

This was about converting existing pages.

You can be (or could have been) silent about the matter, but this doesn't
mean others shouldn't comment on the idea. It's much more useful to tell
that something shouldn't be done (if that statement is correct) than to
describe how to do that; the latter could actually do some harm, if it helps
someone to do something he shouldn't be doing.
