You use "but" as though you're disputing some statement I made, when I intentionally avoided making any statement outside my knowledge. I said Kepler does use occlusion, and does not use wobbling.

I'm not trying to single you out here. I'm just curious what one has to say on HN so as not to be corrected.

Is there some "don't assume I've implicitly made a bunch of unsupported remarks" initialism that I can tack on to the end of all my posts?

No need to get defensive, lutorm was just pointing out that the assumption made by the OP is still supported. His comment was simply a productive, interesting addition to yours, unlike this complaint.


I'm glad he brought it up. I have noticed it is getting awfully hard to say anything precisely enough to get it past the cadre of pedants.


Actually, the correct expression is "cohort of pedants."


Are these tears of laughter or rage?
