There is a misunderstanding. Your exact question was -"but surely you do not suspect betatesters of such idiocy?" And he replied -"yes, of course" to your question, or in other words - "yes, of course I do not suspect betatesters of such idiocy" You asked "Is NOT A" ? He replied "Yes, NOT A" If he though that we are idiots then he would answer "NO NOT A" thus A It has to do with the language interpretation of two negations. -- George M.
