Uhm, ... would't that be like tossin' the baby out with the bathwater ...
and the bathroom, and the house, and replacing it all with a condo from some
other builder, just because the bathroom sink was clogged.  That might
"resolve" (totally skip around) the issue, and result in a bathroom sink
that drains - or being able to ssh into the host, ... but then one hasn't
exactly learned how to troubleshoot, isolate, and correct the issue.
