Argh, maybe I should have obfuscated even those details, and e.g. instead of saying “this is not a minor way” say “I think it is relevant whether or not it is a minor way”; and conclude where the balance of the considerations pointed without saying which considerations pointed in which way?
I think probably that level of paranoia-or-something feels excessive. And it would have made the comment much harder to write.
