A) All readers should remember that I wrote (pertaining to this subtopic) that posters should be steered civilly onto a better path.
B) I'm sincerely curious why you chose to label the hypothetical OP as "lazy" and the hypothetical responder as "rude". Aren't they both lazy? Or both rude? What justifies painting them with different brushes?
