You say "this sounds like the opposite of promises solving a problem", which I assume would mean promises creating a problem? This obviously conflicts with the "abstraction not mattering" part. Everything I said was to reinforce the point that the abstraction doesn't matter and demonstrate how zalgo's still a footgun for promises. So I was generally agreeing with you, except with the part where you called Juraj's statement a flat out lie -- it was more of an underestimation of the zalgo on Juraj's part :)
