Again, I think we're kind of on the same page, but our solutions are different. The original question refused any kind of nuance, and we both seem to agree it's not a question that should ignore nuance. You choose to answer a binary question with a grading system, I choose to substitute a different question.


Well, I think the binary version still works, even if I see possible improvement. While you think the binary version doesn't work. So sort of the same page, sort of not. Shrug.
