But that is how PO operates.
There is /no/ logic underlying what he says.
He just starts with saying
something he /thinks/ ought to be true, and over time he tries out 100 different phrasings and "justifications" to see how they get on.
Sometimes he abandons a phrasing, because it's ridiculed to such an
extent that PO realises it is actively harming his position.-a I expect
that will be the fate of the current "it does not change the sequence of instructions".-a He does not abandon it because he logically understands
he made a mistake - it's purely a practical decision that it's not working...
Occasionally he hits on a wording that has become so full of duffer-
speak that it really isn't clear what he actually means by it, so
posters [rather than forcing PO to clarify his intent, which they kind
of know is a dead end] just decide on one of a number of translations
which is surely "what PO must really be intending to say", and proceed
on those grounds.-a That leads to lack of clarity and likely some discrepencies between approaches different posters are taking.-a PO takes that as SUCCESS!-a He has finally "improved his wording" to the extent
that nobody understands what's going on [the idiots!], and nobody is
able to "refute his argument" (to his satisfaction)!!
Those phrasings make it into his go-to "fly spray" collection that he liberally sprays over all objections to his claims.
