   I get one of your points, that some sites should work in the bottom of Africa. But there is a counter-point here, no? Why should a site be developed for the worst of connections out there? Is there a middle point here?

    Not sure how OP's product is different, but MTR's food is not good at all. Even assuming that a $2.50 pack is enough for you (I find that I need two at most times for my regular hunger), it's not good to eat at all. I usually

    You should continue reading the statement. While they use a commonly used phrase, there is some colorful language there.
