Interlinear interpolations
 such as this: usually a bad idea, even if done scrupulously and politely. It may seem to the interpolator to be more efficient and comprehensible than any alternative way of responding, but it's borderline acceptable at best according to some guideline that I'm too sleepy to look for right now, and it usually gets up the nose of the interpolatee. You may wish to self-revert and find a different way to express this.
