I said something. You understood what I meant. You explained it pretty clearly, too.
In that post, and I guess in the next one and maybe even in this one, I am advocating that those 9 steps are accurately Voldemort’s plan. But it is not important that I convince you, or anyone, that they are accurate. It is enough that I convince you to consider them. The theory’s own merits and flaws will determine its fate.
Respectfully, discussion and debate are not consider successful if all you do is cause the other person to understand your position. If no one’s position changes, something is wrong.
Again, my goal is not to convince you or anyone else.
My goal is to test the speculated scenario. I advocate for it not because I want to convince others, but because it doesn’t get much mileage on its own.
As it gets picked apart, I learn more about the the scenario itself, about the material it’s built on, and about the speculative process.
Respectfully, it is silly to assume that no one’s position is changing.

So, yes. “Seems to have worked.”
