It was an amused comment on how laser-focused the discussion had become while ignoring other stuff that might also be important to the OP.

The rest was addressed previously; you misinterpreted comments as meaning something completely different than what was written or intended.
As I've clarified my comments as not meaning what you thought, your continued misinterpretation is yours to deal with.
"Amused comment" isn't disparagement. Got it. Nice try at the back-pedal.
I think you're at fault for any misunderstanding, you think I am. If you really want to let this go, let's leave it at that.
