> Who in the flying fuck are you to assume that I need help of any sort? You asked a question. Asking a question is ostensibly a request for help of some kind, like clarification. Perhaps you were asking rhetorically or insincerely, but I provided an answer in good faith assuming you literally didn't understand why one should assume good faith. I would have replied anyway even if you weren't, just in case anyone else was even slightly convinced by your line of reasoning. > Are any of those convergence? I don't know -and now, thanks to your post, I don't care either. Convergence may not relevant to all objectives, but neither is assuming good faith. Since we're talking about why one should assume good faith, I pointed out that convergence to agreement is one good reason. I don't see how anything else you mentioned is relevant.
