my conscience stabs me

The problem with being comfortable with your sins is that you keep committing them.  Then suddenly you cross a threshold and you're uncomfortable.  So is the frequency or the count the problem?  No, dummy, it's called a sin for a reason.  But it's a sin you've rationalized away long ago, so it must be reëxamined.

I must be sterner with myself.  I need to change.  I am at stake.

It's a diæresis. It indicates that the vowel must be voiced separately. It's a bit of an archaism but i like it.

It also prevents the first four letters from being pronounced as 'reeks'.

Well at least it is not like confusing GREEED with a fiscal Policy, or Radical EcoTerrorism for a foreign policy on which nations you will decide to rescue their WetLands in Your Holy Crusade Against the Iranian Flying Saucers....
