RE: Stupid question

That is true, but I also said in my EMAIL that in that case
comments should explain how to (or how not to) use these
models, that is the user should not blindly allow the tool
to do all possible permutations of every driver model it can
find in the circuit... I admit, this may not necessarily be
possible or easy with all tools out there.

If the conversion is not performed, I think some simulators will report
false
violations when they attempt to drive a net from what is supposed to be an
input pin.
