I am more than two-thirds through.  I could not stand the suspense,
and skimmed through all of the remaining sections and exercises.  I
must report that at the end of the course the function under critique
still returns either a list of dicts or a list of tuples depending on
whether headers are present or not.  Make of this what you will.
