I don't give a *** about what you suspect. You used a phrase and
Torkel objected. You expressed surprise and disdain. I explained his
objection.

You raised a hissy fit.

You are the thinnest-skinned self-proclaimed mathematician I have
encountered.

I did. You whined because I used derogatory terms like "non-standard"
and "confused".

If you really insist on remaining in confusion, I surely won't try and
stop you.
