Thanks @Beckdawrek, but I’d like to address @Johnny_Bravo’s points.

While I say obsession, it’s probably inaccurate then. We had a LOT more response to this one than quite a few prior, similar mentions in this and prior threads. So I was surprised. But based on what JB and others mentioned, they had similar feelings but had been quiet up until now. So more a sudden upwelling of prior concerns that came to a head now, rather than a sudden obsession. No sweat, my misunderstanding.

I think what I see here is a difference in _intent_. I did NOT mean to post this as an accusation in the first post, which is why I tried to be clear on why I wasn’t making an accusation, and why I hoped it was a false positive. But, like a lot of things, my _intent_ doesn’t mean it isn’t a de facto accusation as well. So I’ll mea culpa on this. My intentions may have been benign, but, results can and do often outweigh them.
