That is the same thing. There are many ways for you to speak to us in
this newsgroup and this is the one you chose.

I always blame the artisan, not his tools.

Who says I want to? I read this group and I get what is served here. THe
choice to inject Fidonet content is not mine and I can't do anything
about it (except perhaps elaborate filtering).

I haven't though some here state they do. My thread is correct but it is
still sometimes relevant whether someone has ignored another opinion or
had no chance of seeing it when writing.

This is not Fidonet. If you come here as a guest, it's mandatory for you
to act accordingly to our rules. I used to visit UseNet aus a guest from
MausNet. I know the rules and our sysops at the time made sure we abided
by them. Iirc Fidonet had a flaky reputation even then.
