On HN, please don't use quotation marks to make it look like you're quoting someone when you're not. In this case it led to a bad misunderstanding elsewhere in the thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19470818).

For that reason, we ban accounts when they cross that line. More explanation on that if anyone wants it: https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme....
