I hope the irony of using a quote as an example of what you've been
saying all along isn't lost on anyone either.

Kris,
This by Bhante Gunaratana:
"Insight cannot be practiced while absorbed in jhana, since insight
meditation requires investigation and observation, which are
impossible when the mind is immersed in one-pointed absorption. But
after emerging from the jhana, the mind is cleared of the hindrances,
and the stillness and clarity that then result conduce to precise,
penetrating insight." [my italics]
I hope anyone can see that this is what I've been saying all along.
