I've re-upvoted your post because of its relatively substantive core, but please don't lead with snark like "Yeah, right" in comments here. It degrades the community and encourages others to do worse.

Fun fact: The first definition of "snark" is an imaginary animal...

...which is also, coincidentally, the subject of the comment :)

But, on a serious note: I don't consider "Yeah, right...", followed by an explanation, to be too snarky.
