my assumptions about your opinions and stances are based entirely on the peculiar bias of your initial 'facts' toward facilitating the jump, if only by inaction and discouraging responses to arthur's statement of intent. responses that were likeliest to constitute disagreement.

i don't know how else to describe your relative shift to neutrality, just now, besides backpedaling. or ass-covering. not that there is incredibly much an ass or its pedals can achieve on the network at the moment. we can agree on that, whether or not you're about to acknowledge you misspoke for a given value of misspeaking.

that's not a bad hierarchy of concerns. maybe you should stop talking about stopping all the talking.
