Where exactly did I offend YOU?  I could understand, though not agree,
with Michael being offended by something I said in the last few days,
although offence has certainly not been my intent.

Please do tell me what made you turn all your hate on me.  In the last
year or so, you have not missed one chance to jump into a discussion
for no other apparent reason than to contradict me just for the sake
of it.  Why this hostility?

The macros are a huge part of the functionality.  There are no large
tables in libavutil and certainly not in header files.  If you want to
argue, please try to do so based on verifiable facts.
