So we’re at least agreed on the replies being knowably unhelpful then?
That one is trickier. It depends on what you meant by “knowably”, that is, knowable by who in what state of information.
I didn’t get clarification… re-re-explaining...
I was going to try to dissect this, but rather than getting into the weeds of that exchange, I’ll just say that to me your position seems to be predicated on assertions you take to be obviously factual but that I believe to be uncharitable inferences on your part. At this point my endurance is giving out, so I’m going to leave the question of exactly which assertions I’m talking about as an exercise for the reader.
