 > Yeah, we'd suggested that earlier, but occasionally the parent theme
 will want to include a file that they don't want the child theme to
 override.

 That's what `get_template_directory_uri()` is for. There is no need to
 over-complicate ''this'' function, just to duplicate something that Theme
 developers can already do with existing functions.
