> In troff, the number of / characters necessary to output a single > / character grows exponentially with macro depth. Ok, but should we consider fields as macros? I had not expcted up to now that fields reduce \\ to \. And we now have a difference between groff and other troff variants here. So I read your and Ralph's mail as "\\ should not be used to produce a \ character in the output and so we don't need to fix this feature"?
