Uh huh, this is what the troll people are after. Having one side of the conversation, their side, instead of a broader conversation about how to best ensure code is correct. It’s just a wedge they can use to claim authority on something while also scoping the terms of the debate.

This would take about half an hour. Then I forgot about them. I got compliments for how useful they were in testing new releases of the system. --- Frank C.
