    It doesn’t seem weird to you that both of your last substantive comments started with the exact same concepts in the same structure and only slightly reworded?

      It’s called concessions dude. Argumentative structure. I steelman your argument, give it concessions where I do agree, and then follow up where I disagree and state my points. It leaves the reader on those points to let them settle.

        You don’t think this is weird? Your second comment repeating your first comment even though my intervening comment didn’t mention these things?

        Are you saying you were just rewriting your comment and leaving in the stuff that didn’t change? I’ve just never seen anyone in any forum do that before in 30 years.

          No, that’s my own fault for copying and pasting the previous comment to rewrite the latter half and not editing the top half.

          In all honesty, I was sitting on a roof taking a break while installing solar panels. That’s my bad.

            Sorry for accusing you of using a.i. I thought it was just regurgitating. I should assumed it was copy paste. My bad
