I never mind saying so, Michael, but "shoot the messenger" did make me smile.
Guys understand that humidity doesn't just disappear, it has to leak out. And if it's leaking from a desktop so rapidly that it takes a Hydra to replace it, that's just plain ridiculous.
I don't think Michael (dijit) is battling a desktop, it's probably something larger, but it's still got to be pretty big and pretty leaky to defy a Hydra.
If a Hydra is just sitting in a nice, tight desktop, it's going to overhumidify it by equalization. So there's that, too.
