    Your “rhetorical question” and objections you raised were already answered in this thread before you raised them.

      It sounds like you still don’t understand what a rhetorical question is.

        Seems you’re the one who doesn’t understand what a rhetorical question is. Hint - it’s not what you retrospectively call a question when you get called out on your laziness.

        Nor is it rhetorical when you ask a question and then spend several lines going on about it, and making it clear that you really did want to talk about an answer.

          Schrodinger’s rhetorical question is when you decide whether your question was rhetorical or not based on people’s reaction to it.

          Didn’t happen.

            do some red circles and arrows help?

              You can poorly circle (do you need to see a doctor…?) as many of my comments as you like, it won’t change what I actually said.

          Why are you asking me? I’m not the one accusing others of “nOt rEaDiNg dA tHrEaD bEfOrE u AsKeD a qUeStOn”. My top level reply was on-topic. No one has actually provided an on-topic reply to it yet.

            Why are you asking me?

            because you are the one who started it. people usually contribute information into public discussion with hope it will be useful to other readers.

            I’m not the one accusing others of “nOt rEaDiNg dA tHrEaD bEfOrE u AsKeD a qUeStOn”.

            no, you are the one AsKIng rHETOrIcal qUEsTioN 🤣

            No one has actually provided an on-topic reply to it yet.

            you were pointed to the fact that your questions were already answered and you can easily read these answers. that is as on topic as it can get.

            you chose weird hill to die on.

              ???

              My top level comment was on-topic. No reply to me has been on-topic. No one has actually challenged me on any of the relevant detail of what I said. Are you guys just mad because I don’t suffer from the same problems as you? Is that what is going on here?

                If you are a troll, well done. If you are really that dellusional, please get help.

                  If anyone is a troll here, it is you. Dropped into the thread, ignored the topic and every reply and instead went straight to the one that triggered you to begin a completely off-topic argument before rage-quitting when you encountered push-back

                  You’ve contributed absolutely nothing of value to the thread and can’t even spell “delusional” correctly. Pathetic effort.
