- derefr 16y agoI was simply trying to explain that someone_here's original question was more likely inspired by ignorance at the meaning of "framework" than by the extreme belief that any and all library usage is disallowed by 3.3.1, and thus wasn't an example of "irrational ... hate for Apple's policies." I know both definitions of "framework", and can differentiate them by context of usage—but a good journalist avoids, in their writing, words with clashing jargon/non-jargon definitions (for example, "begs the question") even when using them correctly under the jargon sense—because people unfamiliar with the jargon will assume the general term, and get all sorts of confused.
