I agree with all your comments - but can be of little practical help. I have been using BASIC in its various dialects for about 40 years (of my 75) and it is the only language I know (apart from 6809 machine code). I can understand some simple Arduino code but struggle to write my own. HTML and Java etc are Greek to me.
It may well be that Mike's BASIC is embedded amongst Arduino code so might be difficult to modularise as you say. I have no idea how much work it takes to add or remove a library.
Doing it in Visual Basic I would just scan through the check boxes on the user interface and create a file with all the necesary includes and defines then run the build process by calling a batch file of some sort.
I don't know how to do that in HTML and I appreciate that there might be server costs that would make it unworkable.
The IR change that I made was virtually just one byte in the NEC receive section. Since it is a library and no one else seems to have had a problem I assume that it is specific to my devices and would not know where to make the suggestion anyway - Github is another unknown area with dragons...
