I'll take that as a "no." I appreciate the summary anyway, thanks.

Instead of a low-effort comment implying that a high-effort summary with zero rebuttals has been conjured out of nothing, please ask any question, about any sentence, for which you cannot find a source on the first page of Algolia/Google after entering the sentence as a query. They have been discussed many times here on HN and there are excellent references in those earlier threads. Alternately, ask the nearest optician or ophthalmologist.

  Perhaps you've read too much into my reply. I'm capable of looking things up in my own time - thank you for your offer to help me, though - I was wondering whether you were summarizing a single source. You made it clear that you were not. I thought I thanked you and moved on, but it seems I've pissed you off. Sorry, guess the curt and literal HackerNewsSpeak is rubbing off on me.
