So, I answered a question that you intended to be a rhetorical question, and that answer introduced confusion.

You interpreted my literal question as rhetorical and thought I was jumping to conclusions.

As for what you do with my comments--whatever you want.

You disagree with my opinion.

That's fine.

I am a random stranger on the Internet. There is no penalty for completely ignoring any or all of my comments.

I posted what I saw in your situation for the same reason we post anything here--to give posters a view they might not be seeing in the hopes that it's helpful, even if hard to hear.

But posters are always free to reject the view that's offered, based on what they know of their situation.
