Yes. The entire question is predicated on there being a subtext. I answered that: assume the words they wrote were what they meant. Believing that "[what] they meant" was something besides that or that there was something else that "they were implying" is to believe that there was a subtext by definition.

…because in the previous comment you felt confident enough to answer for them. you said:
> No, they weren't saying that.
is asking what you think they meant unreasonable?
