I thought the comment was good and I don't have any idea what SanguineEmpiricist was talking about.

It's hard to explain, i'll edit it in later if I think of a good explanation.

It's just the overly pedantic style complimented by a lovely personality and the passive framing. It has to do with the organizational style as well, maybe a bit too spruced up? Don't let me get you down though, I didn't mean it like that.

Well, of course if S.E. is correct that "there are too many posts like the one I'm responding to" then we should expect that other people will like that sort of thing even though s/he doesn't.

(Unsurprisingly, I think my comment was perfectly OK too. Thanks for the expression of support.)
