One welcome side benefit was that approximately 200 bytes of code space got freed up.

Also killed a few obscure bugs, and implemented the requested refinement in the blinking code. Now, the special little type characters in the main display will disappear for 0.5 seconds, then appear for 1.5 seconds. I can very easily make it so that they can appear for 3.5 seconds, then disappear for 0.5 seconds, if need be.

A-B testing code and coastdown testing code have not been worked on, I'm afraid. Life has been busy lately, so haven't been able to do much else with coding.
When will we be able to test these changes?

If somebody (like me) is willing to go with the 5-button analog button code and hardware, that will make available the two required pins for the native hardware TWI communication interface.
Yes no doubt that this will be the best option for those who have few Pins available.

The EEPROM and the clock share the SCL and SDA pins, but they are separate devices.
Ok

Thank you
