But sue-ing means your problem goes to legal and not tier 1 customer support. So Mary from legal walks over to Manager whoever and says "Hey why the fuck did you terminate this guys account? Now I have to go to court." Account rei

Conflation is very easy to do here. If you are very sick, you probably aren't drinking coffee (it's a mild stomach irritant). So there is a correlation between coffee and being healthy, but causation is very messy.
