I love your analysis! I've always thought that the three part harmony vocals on "Honey Hi" are one of the top 5 moments in the band's entire catalog.
You analysis of "Oh Daddy" is equally true. There was an outtake from "Rumours" that featured a harmony vocal from Stevie on "Oh Daddy" that I though should have made the record.
"Rumours", in its original format, remains the PERFECT record and "I Don't Want To Know" fits perfectly within the context. I know it's not a popular opinion, BUT, "I Don't Want To Know" is a deliciously FUN song and it should be kept on "Rumours".
"Silver Springs" is an equally fantastic tune, but I think it would fit better on The White Album (1975).
