I notice a curious pattern in this post: technically illiterate critical comments get voted up to +1/+2 (even after getting debunked), while technically accurate arguments (replies) stay at 0/+1. Please vote up only things you know you understand, and do vote up comments that debunk incorrect arguments.
I wanted to say that yesterday, but chose instead to stay silent on the meta-issue, try as best I can to clarify the technical issues (though having to explain that there are actual technical issues was a nasty surprise for me), and refrain from downvoting illiterate critiques because I could be biased.
So thanks for saying what I wanted to say—it sounds better when someone else says it.

ETA: Mostly corrected now.
