"Your document is at least 40 years younger than E-series components and all the odd/even numerology was not an issue." is a pretty strong criticism! It doesn't matter if jonk is reciting material if he's citing the wrong material.

Huh. Did I not expand a comment somewhere? Because I didn't see anyone citing the correct material.

Neither do I. I'm not sure if that claim is right or wrong but it doesn't seem properly resolved.

Agreed. I don't think a 40 year old document can be trusted. (Side-eye at the US constitution. :)
