I can make up a hypothetical about someone being offended by anything, but that doesn't mean that it is actually germane to our conversation.If you can't actually come up with real-life examples and defend them, then I just don't see why we don't use them. If you want to faff around with useless imaginary situations instead of actually addressing the real-life situation, then I really don't care. Go create a thread of weird hypotheticals. We have plenty of real situations to draw from here.No, because these situations are specifically contextually based, hence why hypotheticals are not useful. You can make hypotheticals that contextualize around anything and everything, but we have actual situations we are talking about right now that we can actually look at. Trying to figure out a magical set of rules that applies to everything misses that what we are talking about are almost always extremely situational and will rely on the specifics to dictate the intensity of the solution.So yeah, I just don't care about whatever situation you want to make up. We don't need to figure an extensive flow-chart to dictate our response. We can come up with it individually because each situation will be individual.Those aren't arguments against a disclaimer, those are arguments about doing disclaimers badly. Those are not the same.</blockquote>
