When someone wants to discuss syntax, it is polite to discuss syntax. It 
is rude to tell them the question they have isn't good enough — 
especially when your reasoning is wrong.

If you want to find ways to stretch your ability to express shades of 
meaning, by all means do so. Without hijacking someone else's question 
about syntax.

So post your enlightened ideas about expressing meaning.

By the way, there are plenty of discussions around here about finding 
ways to express subtle meanings.

You were trolling. You admitted to trolling. You're trolling now.

Pick a wider topic. Post about it. Don't make accusations in your post. 
Don't pound on people about how vague, wittering, and indecisive they 
are. Don't hijack someone else's topic. I promise you, I won't argue 
with you. I'll participate. I'll look forward to it. Finding new and 
subtler ways to express something is satisfying.

But if you continue to answer people's questions about canon with 
unevidenced conclusions from outrageous stereotypes, I'll still call 
them out as not supportable.
