Anyway, iirc, one of the goal is to not turn this into obviously paralleling other threads, because the Mods have implied/said that pretty strongly in the past.

Analogies and a bit of veiling seem to work. Literally dropping in something that would fit in the other thread and going back and forth feels like it might not.

Broadly, yes.

Consider it this way - if there's something that you want to say in another thread, but you know you shouldn't because it'd have bad results... it is still visible here. If someone from that other thread sees it, you still have the same problem, the same bad results, with the addition of looking kind of passive-aggressive about it.

We can't support this thread if it becomes snide back-biting. If it is a place to share a little of the common frustrations of messageboards, it is more constructive.

Folks should be able to read what you write and go, "Yeah, I've been there too," not "I know exactly what argument you are talking about, let us continue it here."
