Don't know what you're trying to say here or what it is you aim
at. If you think it's worth discussing please elaborate.

I don't know you or your background or much of your programming.
So please understand that I'm not inclined to make any comments
about you or your code; this would be all speculative and not
contribute anything to the discussion. If you had the impression
that what I said was referring to you personally you were wrong.
