I intended that more as a comment on how frustrating it can be to study Arabic, where years of effort leave you barely able to follow a TV broadcast, and not as a slight on the DLI, which is probably as intensive a program as anyone can pursue.
I can see how you can read that comment as a dig at the DLI, but that wasn't my intent.
