One of the oddly interesting things I have seen over the time I have been online from 300 baud modems to now is the pointy complaints about pointy exchanges, which simply adds further to the pointyness of what may be going on.
But, however, the point made here, by J4, beyond the real or imagined pointyness one might find in an exchange is an excellent point may be missed by taking the real or imagined pointyness of an exchange as being the point. We may need to forgive ourselves and our brothers and sisters their small failings in this regard in order to get to the real point. As Gandhi said:
