"Bad faith" is pretty self-explanatory, is it not? Of course it was sarcasm, the point being made is a bad faith assumption of the GP's point.

The point is not in explaining "bad faith", but in explaining how and why the comment you're replying to is "bad faith". Was not clear to me at all that you were being sarcastic.

We're running in circles a bit here but the author of the comment I responded to claimed in a followup comment that it was sarcasm. Sarcasm and bad/good faith discussion are mutually exclusive.

Inception level guessing and assumptions you're making all in this thread.
