Well a bit, but mostly I was just pointing out that the text I replied to
wasn’t thought out and made it sound worse than it is (I think!).
> I don't think they intend to pick specifically on you at all.
Agreed. It’s also maybe a consequence of using English where “thou”, “you” and
“one” has been merged into one word, creating ambiguity.

Sure, but that there isn’t a list of people who form the deciding committee
makes it very strange. That it applies to everyone doesn’t make it better, it
makes it worse.
> we have to answer questions and help prospective authors based on the text

Also agreed. The fastest responses on this list tend to be the most hostile and
least constructive also, so if you read it after the fact and don’t pay close
attention to the chronology it looks nicer than how it feels posting here.

Sure. But I’m also pointing out that they are being (accidentally?) brusque. I
know I am all the time! I keep apologizing and trying to backpedal when I
realize I wasn’t understood in the way I was attempting.
