There have been multiple examples presented that I would think could be reasonably viewed as "unguarded, untrapped, and unhidden" over the course of this thread. You yourself have subscribed to the belief that they constitute "some examples" of the item in question. Is the distinction between some and many enough to warrant the resulting internet angst this discussion has produced? How much more than "some" is "many"? I would say that there have been at least "a few" examples presented. Is this much less than "many?" (According to a Discworld troll, there is not much distinction <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> ). If Bullgrit had provided 5 examples, would that have been enough? 10? 25? At some point, I think we have to be willing to look past raw semantics to examine what the presenter is trying to communicate. This is what Bullgrit was trying to communicate with the comment you take offense to, RC. I don't think fretting over the specific value of an indeterminate numerical qualifier seriously impinges on the merit of this idea.</blockquote>
