Richard: (03)
There are *so many* differences in the way we operate that it would be
beyond the scope of this list to name them all. This has been recognized by
most governments and enterprises worldwide. (04)
I'd be happy to take it offline as others have laid out many of the
differences. (05)
As for legacy, it actually is really clean but there are a few places where
it might seem illogical unless the core design goals are considered. One of
those priority design goals of PDF is to be backwards and forwards
compatible with all versions. People who have implemented it (about 40++)
would not allow someone to break this IMO. (06)
