It isnt exceptional to ask for a source, no need for sarcasm.
It is exceptional to expect or require sources for well-known ideas to be attached to every comment that alludes to or evokes them. None of us needed sources to understand the point that the OP was making.
can you extract the most relevant quotes from each and attach to your claims?
The trend here is that it will not be good enough for you. You asked for sources and got them. Now you are expanding your request. What's next in your list of demands after he extracts the most relevant quotes from each?
I'm baffled that you have made it this guy's job to hunt down and feed you primary sources because he wrote a comment that assumes some baseline knowledge.

What's next in your list of demands after he extracts the most relevant quotes from each?" I said, "at least" have sources. That is like the bare minimum. Here is a post I made earlier today that meets my standards: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18522479 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18522479 You can find many posts in my history that have a similar format.
