For someone like me, who fails to spot the related variables even
within a single file, I think hiving customisation off into a separate
file might set up a few new tripwires for future me.

Having said that, having let my .emacs grow organically (think "rampant
weeds") for 30 years, maybe I should take the shears to it.  I'm just
worried that, if I started today, I might not be productive again until
the New Year :-(

Cheers,
