META - why is nathnb's comment being down-voted? (It's not rude or aggressive or meme-spewing or vapid "me too" / "plus one".)



I didn't downvote, but nathnb's comment isn't adding anything to the discussion. It's a personal aside about some confusion he is having; his last question especially emphasizes that aspect.

But I see that several other comments at that level were also downvoted.


I think because it's sort of factually incorrect (the GPS-based theories hadn't been substantiated), which makes its sarcasm hard to take.

PS: Meant to upvote, but hit the wrong button. Sorry.
