i can’t walk you to a conclusion you don’t want to come to, sorry
That’s precisely the purpose of a debate. I’m happy to read your rationale for why the two examples are equivalent, but you have not supported that statement in this thread. All you’ve said is that you’re “logically following from those quotes”. I don’t see the logic you followed, and neither does the OP who vehemently disagrees with your conclusion.
you have badly missed my point here: i don’t care that you personally don’t think i have substantiated the point; i think i have, and you’re not entitled to ten more posts from me to substantiate to your satisfaction the point.
