Thank you, I respect the effort put into this. The free time and skills that I did not have. I'm at this point more interested the Psychology of the readers who insisted "I don't know the phrase, and drew a blank, therefor it's wrong, broken, bad writing, how dare they not write for me". And refuse to listen to the contrary, indeed "refute" it (hah). It's something - entitled? Arrogant? Leaning into ignorance? Fixed mindset? Whatever it is, it's best viewed at a distance, like car crash.

> I'm at this more interested the Psychology of the readers Sure. In my head it looked like this: "I don't think this is an idiom" (meaning that either it is not an idiom or I am unfamiliar) "I am an authority on English, and it is an idiom" "Nah." "Here are the dictionaries" "It is not in the dictionaries" "Google it" "That's lazy, but sure. It is not on the internet" "Here, it is in a pdf used in education" "Fine" I don't think that I am the arrogant or entitled one here. Also I don't understand why are you coming after me after this concluded. This, and your other comment. I very much don't like it.
