I'm willing to take Eliezer's word for it if he thinks it is, so I blanked it

I know why you did it. My intention is to register disagreement with your decision. I claim it would have sufficed to simply let Eliezer delete the comment, without you yourself taking additional action to further delete it, as it were.

Let it go.

I could do without this condescending phrase, which unnecessarily (and unjustifiably) imputes agitation to me.

Sorry, you're right. I didn't mean to imply condescension or agitation toward you; it was written in a state of mild frustration, but definitely not at or about your post in particular.
