I am not suggesting that (at least not intentionally), I was making a
reference to earlier, similar posts on this list. It has happened repeatedly
here that people (usually US members) say "if this-or-that-happens then I
will unsubscribe". Those messages are generally considered "threats of
leaving" (although I do not see them as threats but as blackmail). You spoke
of leaving as well, hence the reference.
