This focussing on particular definitions that are not exhaustive, that is the parallelism I am pointing out.
It wasn’t super difficult. Its just an alphabet. How would that help, and how is that point relevant to anything discussed thus far?

You’ve said it to me at least 3 times, in various phrasings.
I look forward to when we next chat.
