No, you don't understand. It isn't a matter of "positing" anything. What
you're reporting to this newsgroup is no more than the fact that *you*
"fail to see the use of" what you have been told. You're just making a
public statement of your ignorance (something you've been doing from the
outset).

Nobody is obliged to educate you, but you should expect people to point
out *that* you're ignorant.
