Indeed! But I eventually overcame the pain. Thank you for caring! :)

Last time we disagreed, you grossly concluded with:

   Future maintainers may of course interpret the recommendations of the
   FSF differently, but that's mine for now.

As far as my understanding permits, this means: "I'm am the one in
charge. I know what I'm doing. Discussion closed. Next."

I find this stance dubious, whatever the subject is, or if you are right
or wrong. To make my point go through, I'm now pushing it up to the
absurd. My intent is to warn, not to hurt.

I know that is not a good way to communicate.

I also believe that lecturing others about communication on mailing
lists, or social behaviour in general, is not helpful either. Unless, of
course, you think being patronizing is more acceptable here than being
ironic. I hope you don't.
