I do believe this is pretty much what I said. I am not sure there is sufficient bandwidth for you to show so many examples but, in any case, my purpose was to highlight the particular damage here which I have clearly illustrated.

Exactly. You have succinctly summarised my point - so why the adversarial tone?
