yes and no .. the original setup commands date from the time (previous
century) that there were less such commands so we ended up with
combining features in one command that should have been split. The same
is true for footnotes, where we now split in the note handler itself and
the rendering
(in fact, setting up doublesided should be in setuplayout but i'll keep
that one)
