Sure the paraphrasing is fine I was just asking if you thought it was wrong of me to suggest that people are pushing cows over because the cows are asleep standing up it s a non sequitur to say that people think it s easy to tip a cow over because cows are slow and dim witted and weak legged but actually cows only sleep lightly when standing up It looks like at least one other source defines cow tipping as pushing over a sleeping cow so I ll add back my edit with a source
