Woody I agree with most of what yousay but I don't think WAV is lazy at all. His output of all sorts of stuff is prolific.

I do think that he doesn't know how much work (practice, research, editing, reviewing, listening) is needed to acquire a degree of expertise in anything. He publishes before he is ready, and in trying to defend his publication finds himself in an entrenched position from which he cannot extricate himself.

Instead of reading the posts of others and internalizing, he either ignores them or refers them to previous posts and publications as some sort of verbal tennis match.

I wonder (apart from punctuation which has improved) whether any post from anyone has modified his intransigent opinions one iota.
