I have no interest in participating in a conversation that isn’t either fun or useful. Thanks for letting me know I should not assume the same about you; I’ll check in earlier next time.

Yeah, sometimes it is easy just to respond to stimulus. Technically incorrect (in my reading) - Must fix bug or conversation will not compile and pass the test suit...
I deleted ancestors wherein you persuaded and I conceded that debating the word definition is not useful. (It could be and was misused elsewhere.)
Although to my chagrin on rereading your comment I notice a ‘not’ in your comment that I missed the first time. My original reading was that it was right on the money. I suppose that means I should reverse my impression from being impressed with your smooth handling to, well, not.
I hope you don’t mind if I ‘act as if’ my impression of goodwill and potential mutual respect was accurate. It’s a technique that pjeby recommends. :)

I’m interested in how we could have changed the interaction so that I would not have been inclined to put a ‘not’ there, but I’ve addressed this elsewhere.
Well, not having it would have been easiest. I disagreed but not all disagreements are worth speaking. That and for my part I would most likely have used different phrasings and responded more patiently if I had slept more than 1 hour. This is something I have already made a note of to bear in mind for future conversations. :)

Sounds like a good idea. Call it pax.
