onefang's rewrite rule

matrix-DFS follows onefang's rewrite rule, which is summarised as follows :

• 0 - Write something the first time. Lean towards generality
• 1 - First rewrite. Cut and paste.
• 2 - Second rewrite. Generalise.
• 3 - Third rewrite. Debug the generalisation.
• 4 - Fourth rewrite. All working fine.
• 5 - Fifth rewrite. Make it go away.
• 6 - Sixth rewrite. There is no sixth rewrite.
