Sure, it’s cool for sentimental reasons, but it seems like it would be really practical to replace the forest of wood timbers under the roof with modern fire-resistant materials. They could even replicate the design of the forest, but with something stronger and lighter. It wouldn’t be seen by most visitors to the cathedral. But for some reason, they never consulted with me.
