43. The argument has been stated succintly in [21] page 218, and we quote it here verbatim:... Alternatively, one can adopt a more cavalier approach and simply look for solutions of Einstein's equations with conical singularities, leaving the mathematical purist to resolve the question of whether or not they can be interpreted as arising from distributional sources....
