If you or someone can't come and point out that 'obviously wrong something' then don't say that just because a comment got downvoted for some bizarre reason. That same comment now has 11 points. I hope it didn't now become 'obviously right' to you just because of the point count. The fact this (going into 'grey' or 'black' with 0 retort or correction given by anyone) even happened is just stupid to me.
I believe nothing I said is wrong and anyone is welcome to prove me wrong. I also answered the original questions/doubts clearly (Is LuaJIT stuck on 5.1 and no longer in development - no and no and there is nothing wrong with 5.1 itself). The only downside could be how brief I was but I gave plenty of keywords ('ints', 'bit ops', 'function environments') for an astute reader to google or look up in the documentation of Lua (which is a Ctrl + F friendly one pager plain HTML with minimal styling and no JS, I have it as a single .html file with inline PNG and css on my desktop to use offline).
This stealthy downvote drama is why I use HN passively, logging in only to do a fire and forget comment. I've just avoided seeing this entire downvote debacle unfold in real time during my normal browsing (and thus avoided wondering what's going on or if I were providing people wrong information or something else wrong on my part, since it's not like any downvoter told us why they did it) because of that habit.
