> but look how far you’ve strayed from “If the literal string ‘we apologize’ isn’t it, what is?”
Wasn’t it clear that I changed my mind through the conversation? That’s the point for me, my goal isn’t to pick a position and claim I’m right to the end, but to learn and improve my views. Like I said:
> I agree. And rereading the email I also agree that their apology was lacklustre to say the least. Initially that seemed to be to have come from a position of authority, but I see I was wrong.
If the literal strings “I agree” and “I was wrong” don’t convey that I agree with your points and I think I was wrong, what does?
To be absolutely clear, I’m being tongue-in-cheek. I have no desire to continue this.
And to be even clearer, what I offered as a suggestion was a response to you saying there was “nothing” they could do. That’s the one part I disagree with by the end.
