I might get to the rest of your post later, but that one really jumped out at me.
Probably not worth it my man.
Dominic, why are you on a discussion forum if your mind is already made up?
Not the issue, I just mean to say these points have been debated ad nauseam here and elsewhere.
I understand, but don’t assume since I’m making the same point I won’t be able to say it in a new way that might convince you. Labeling things before you look at then will prevent you from learning new things. Always stay open minded.
