Prolly, yes. The page numbers of the 1624 Paris edition (Stephanus' textus receptus), by which passages of Plutarch are so often, irritatingly, referred. The Loeb edition provides the subsections (A-F) only for the Moralia; for the Lives, just the page numbers. In my transcription, they're indicated in the left margin in green. The information is, unfortunately, useful to have in the Table of Contents — else I'da dispensed with it — since often all one has with a Plutarch citation is that number ("203D", "489F", etc.); including them in the Contents makes the passage easy to locate.
And that answers that question of mine; in setting up the page, hoping to avoid unwieldiness, IÂ omitted mention of what those numbers stood for, yet IÂ did wonder whether this might throw anyone for a loop. Less than 24Â hours later, IÂ have my answer: I've added the explication in the orientation page.
