    @astreus never made that claim.

    It is currently available in Cuba, Colombia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Peru and Paraguay.[

      I agree, I did not make that claim! And I do find it a bit weird that people are using that line of attack. But c’est la vie. I was wrong about what the treatment did, I was wrong about the level of verification it had, however we are singing from the same hymn sheet

      This has already been discussed and op met my edit request. You aren’t part of this.

        For the sake of transparency, I edited before you suggested I did - hence my comment “I had not done the research and have edited my comment above.” 😉

            The implicature of cause and effect is reversed

              When I made my claim your comment was not of quality, you hadn’t edited yet. When token boomer was commenting to me, you had.

                Nope, I had already. Hence why I said “I have edited my comment” and then you said "you should edit your comment.

                  Well that’s fucking wrong else I wouldn’t have started this whole thing, as I’ve indicated your edit is satisfactory

                    Check again.

                    “My original comment was a glib link to a wikipedia page. I had not done the research and have edited my comment above”

                    To which you replied:

                    “Your last sentence here would change the sentiment of your original comment in a positive way. I encourage an edit.”

                    I was going to reply with “what, I should edit my comment again to say I have edited my comment” but decided it wasn’t as funny typed as in my head.

                    Sorry, mate, you are wrong. But over the most stupidly ridiculously small thing on the internet (and that’s saying something)

                    I just want us to be clear: your satisfaction/demands mean literally nothing to me so please don’t take credit for the other poster helping me do my research 🤷‍♂️
