Perhaps if you had taken more than seven seconds you could have found a cite that actually answers the point.
The fact is, Ed’s response was several months BEFORE the three threads I listed. The problem was not actually solved by Ed “addressing” it.
And I’m still not seeing the apology that you claimed.
Now, if you wish to say that the situation doesn’t NEED an apology, that’s fine. I won’t argue about it. But your statement that the OP was a “false implication” in effect calling the OP a liar, that’s something I object to.
I’m going to ask you to either prove your claim or withdraw it.
