Judi,
    Since you quote my response to your query, I have to assume my answer is 
what makes you think you "appear to be pretty stupid."    Geez, not in my 
book!!!      I just didn't understand why you thought you had to have a 
noseband with a snaffle and offered that I didn't use one with the snaffles 
I have.    I meant to reassure with my own experience, not offend.  I 
certainly didn't intend to make you feel stupid nor did I think that with my 
reply.   Yikes. . . .

Okay, you only wanted to hear feedback from people who had used this bit. 
Got it.   I'm sorry I responded.

Well, maybe the better thing is I just don't reply to questions anymore.
