isn't this attributed to deep seeded oppression of diodes versus just a typo

Aw come on now, that's not fair!
I think I can speak for Chuck as well when I say unequivocally that although
we may have inadvertently stepped on and crushed (or exceeded the PIV of)
one or two we have never oppressed a single diode in our entire lives,
whether deep seededly (sic) or not; as a matter of fact I love the little
buggers, silicon or germanium, Schottky or not, high power or low power and
all powers in between, equally and without prejudice, and have assembled
many little teams of them in matrices on the outputs of a demux chip to
solve problems like this in a simple, straightforward, low power (and cheap)
way.
