th4e issue remains that your criticism

was originally based on your inability to comprehend the post(s). maybe you've spun away from that.

and, that you have some miraculous ability to discern a posters "intent", from those same "unintelligible" (so you said) posts flies in the face of logic. if you can't understand a post, how can you determine the posters intent ?

the least rationale for criticising any post by anyone, regardless of content, is that it's too complex for you. if you are correct, i should lambast the authors of those posts on mathweenie sites which exceed my mathematical training. or, those chinese posts which employ characters i've not seen. then instead of trying to get up to speed so as to understand them, you would have me criticise the "intent" of those authors. what's wrong with this picture ?

criticse any post on its technical merits, were you so able. to snivel that any post is too complex for you, thus questioning the "intent" author, is shallow. this is the crux of my observation.
