I'm not sure what you mean about the sub-subfile, but I suppose it
doesn't really matter.  I dug out the shark baseplate and it turns out
even the hill is painted.  Is that what you're talking about with the
sub-subfile?

Anyhow, I was just trying to think of ways to keep the parts zip file
and directory from getting huge with 2 copies of the same hilly points.
But if the shark hill can't be modeled as a solid color then it's not
gonna happen that way.

This was also my motivation behind putting any type 5 lines in a
subfile.  If you don't need or want them, you can replace the subfile
with an empty one to save space (and parsing/rendering time).  But
perhaps it's time to start replacing my old computers instead...
