Decades ago also occurred decades after that. The average desktop app in 2003 felt faster than the average desktop app in 2023. The fact that you chose an app from 1983 shows you're intentionally dishonest.

I don't think he is intentionally dishonest. When I read "decades ago", I thought "three or more", roughly the same way "several" works.
