DF Suggestions / Re: Wood -> 3 Planks (Similiar to Stone->Blocks proccess, but multiplied)

Believe me, I did. Amazingly enough, not one of those posts actually mention this solution, though most of them are focused on the same problem.
They suggest doing something which may involve something called planks, sure, but all of them suggest something markedly complicated or difficult, via modulated tree growing times, a number of special items being required, or "faking" it by allowing multiple tiles to use less materials.
All of these are possible solutions to a problem, but other than my post addressing the same problem, my suggestion has not actually been made before (though one of them, 'suggestions on wood and forestry' struck a similiar note, it was buried among quite a bit of other stuff).
EDIT: Okay, I guess buried in the "suggestion on wood and foresty" post i mentioned, one sees my suggestion as a component. Still, I feel his implementation would be poor and unnecessarily complicated, while mine would be straightforward and simple. None of the others are relevant at all though, near as I can tell.
