You didn't use that word, but you did say "in most situations Casey's suggestion doesn't help much", which is probably what your parent post was responding to.
Despite the apologies you or your team have given, you continue to denigrate and downplay. First, Casey's suggestion "doesn't help much"; then, "Casey's suggestion wasn't unique". And so on. Casey suggested a solution, spent time proving it was easy, and you even used the suggested solution to good effect, and you're still trying to downplay Casey's contribution or involvement.
If Casey hadn't kept pushing, it's doubtful you'd even have gotten around to doing this, so some actual credit is warranted, along with perhaps a real apology.
