It is a rather simplistic and convenient way to assume that I "simply do not yet appear to fully understand...." - and I think this needs to be commented here.

Given the present state of the discussion, in which Support simply refuses to drop some untenable and unsustainable arguments, I still have the impression that indeed a "withdrawal of rights after the fact has taken place", like I have described it in my post.

I could quote a number of statements here that definitely leave no room for any misunderstandings.

I may take your "chiming in" as a positive note and an encouragement to try to "reach a point of understanding" and I hope you will second such attempts that could be beneficial for both sides. And we should have improved our ways to communicate already in the past. To that effect I had proposed to apply the principle of "intellectual honesty" in our discussions, which is a standard usually employed in academic or scientific discourses, but useful everywhere.


Kind regards,

Wilhelm Sanke
