Not really. We'd be able to render them twice, but we'd have to
either restrict them to the size of the smallest intersection of
all of their frames or distort them for each frame.

Yeah, that's what I meant my making the logic more powerful.
I've also been considering making the index file writable so you

I can hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for
if so the plain language of the text seems to show that the men who do
not believe, and this would include my Father, Brother, and almost all
my best friends, will be everlastingly punished.  And this is a
damnable doctrine.
