Please be clear when you make a request of others. I honestly don’t understand what you’re asking for.
You have an argument about how probable Dumbledore is to have said that he burned Narcissa alive. But in the ancestor post, you’re talking about readers “excusing” that, as if that’s an observation both you and other readers shared, and the other readers merely choose to excuse him for it—instead of just not making the same inference given the observations at hand.
And aren’t you supposed to be linking the Sequences if you’re telling me my contribution isn’t good enough?
I have no problem linking to some sequence when I know there’s actually something relevant and useful there, same way I have no problem linking to some relevant and useful Wikipedia page. Do you have some particular page in the sequences that you think I ought have linked to? If so, you can link it to me.
Or are you in reality complaining that people are linking to the sequences too much for your tastes, and are disguising this as a complain that I did not link to them? If so, I suggest that your tactic of criticizing the people who act like you would like them to act is counterproductive.
I’ve only read a couple. I don’t know what’s out. I just see them being linked and thought it might do a better job of explaining what you were trying to tell me.
Please distinguish between observation and inference.
