plus, Roger is using a classic technique of "straw man" argument....inflating a comment or quote way beyond its original formulation by tossing in his personal formulations as **JUDGEMENTS**, such as the following:
"publicly admitted the failure "
"whole purpose ... be designed to make life easier for ... posters with edit buttons"
" does not wish the posters there to be informed."
This is setting up something which twists the original meaning of the quotes, and then sniping at the altered versions.
I gotta, say, though, I have seldom seen this trick done better!
