I have already made clear what your puzzles mean to me in another place (also at this site), but whoever clued the middle row of today’s (splendid) FT crossword hit the nail on its head.
Noy only a good clue, but oh so true.

Is there nothing this man can’t do outstandingly well?!

Tho I did not have the pleasure of meeting him till fairly recent xword gatherings in Derby and Brum, I’ve felt I’ve known him for decades from doing his puzzles from way back. Thanks, Roger.
