I vaguely recall that you got pretty annoyed at me a year or so ago when I pointed out a contradiction in your reasoning.
I don’t recall any conversations with you. (Mind you I expect I would have if I believed you then. Actually being wrong is embarrassing.)
No, from the premise “brazil84 is blatantly and obviously wrong despite paying attention to the topic” “don’t do what brazil84 did” is a reasonably good inference to make. But as I noted you don’t share that premise so naturally you should not be expected to believe it. This is why you were not the intended audience.
Oh, true. For example your correction here gives somewhat less than 0 embarrassment points. Let me clarify that to “In cases where someone is attempting to criticize me regarding a substantial assertion I have made in a manner that makes the situation highly status relevant actually being wrong is embarrassing”.
I’m pretty sure we had a lengthy exchange. But I suppose I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that your public claim—in essence—that my conclusions are insane was purely from the desire to help other posters and not in any way related to our history.
ETA: I just was looking back and I realized that I do not engage with you anymore. I had forgotten about that. Anyway, bye again.

Usually, it depends.
