Alright, let's suppose that Apple should have been more explicit  about
the effects of converting a 1.x stack to 2.0 format;  in fact, Kevin
Calhoun has admitted as much.  

Now let's suppose that I unwittingly convert a stack, and discover that
it does not work the way I want, and would prefer to continue using the
stack in it's 1.x form.  But I can't convert the stack back now, because
HyperCard 2.0 won't let me do that.

I would just get out my backup disk and copy the 1.x version back onto
my hard disk.  No muss, no fuss, no messy cleanup. 

If you don't make backups, don't try to blame somebody else for your
problems.....
