Later in your post you say you feel "disrespected." But this sentence is
about as disrespectable of its readers as a sentence can be. Partly it is
because the word "perfect" almost always distorts a proposition. In any
case, you are here accusing Comrade Blaut and everyone else on m-i of
being ninnys.

Nothing ticks me off as much as an argumentative statement of the
universally accepted.
