I am; note the subject line.

That is not enough to make me talk about it. My concern is not what you call a 'documentation strategy'. I think that's tail chasing, mostly. My concern is what I see as a tendency towards overbroad generalizations on your part.

It's long and run-on but properly constructed.  Is English not your
1st language?  Note the implicit "then," i.e. "[then] there are lotsa
extra barriers."

When told that one is being unclear, it's usually better make things clear than to argue you're being perfectly clear. Also, run-on sentence construction is considered a grammatical error, which means that it's not properly constructed.

No, when you are definitely planning to port to Windows, and picking
tools on that basis, you are not doing a Unix-only project anymore.
You are at the planning stage of a cross-platform project.

Please compare what you said, which I said was overly broad, with what you are now saying, which is substantially different.

I have said what I intended to say, and for that reason I think I'm finished here. Please stop being overly broad; it just undercuts what you're trying to argue.
