Actually, "I strongly suspect" is a rhetorical device that I use. I deliberately use ambiguous language, because exact language is often taken as confrontational.

As it turns out, I needn't have bothered. This was declared a p****ng match, anyway (I didn't mean it that way).

I guess the difference is who gets upset.

I wasn't talking about how they were designed (I apologize for unclear language in my initial posit that indicated that). I was talking about how they are used.
