:::I'm sorry you find my comments unhelpful. I think you misunderstand what I said. My opinion remains that the strikeout was unhelpful. 

 :::For me to reverse the strikeout would just make an already tangled tale worse. If you still see the strikeout as helpful, and my very gentle warning as nonsense, then just disregard my comments. I have tried. I'm wrong sometimes. Let's move on. 

 :::If you feel that my comments are sufficiently uncalled for as to wish to consult an uninvolved administrator or to take the matter to WP:DR, then do so. But I'm hopeful that they'll say that you are just wasting everyone's time.
