You're blowing individual words out of a list and changing an ambiguous paragraph to phrase your personal opinion to pretend it is somehow unambiguous.That's garbage. Your own cherry picking does exactly the same thing. You want all hit points to never represent damage, so you pick phrases that support your cause while simultaneously ignoring the ones that say damage = physical damage.Here are some more cherry-picked definitions from other editions (AD&D, RC, 2E) - You want to talk about undercutting your own arguments, you keep insisting that hit points don't represent actually being hit, and yet you have not even addressed the actual terms we use. To wit: Hit points (points from being hit), damage (physical evidence of being hit), and healing (the act of the body being repaired from physical damage).Once again your preference is not more valid than mine, and we can go back and forth with quoted bits that support each of our own preferences until kingdom come, so stop trying to convince me that you are by cherry picking pieces and deliberately ignoring information even in the same sentences that contradict you.</blockquote>
