So, they should have been more specific so you don’t get worked up and come in guns blazing with epic sarcasm and no charity. Let’s hope they learned their lesson.
they should have been more specific because "just use plastic" is terrible advice. there are many types of plastic and most things called plastic utensils are not silicone. okay..? "just use bamboo" however is not easily capable of becoming terrible advice because there arent many types of bamboo utensils people cook with and all of them are safe unless adultered.
i didnt realize i was being so outlandish. hn is known for what i described. and yes i do hope some people learn to prioritize the actual result instead of wanting to beat others down with rhetorical skill. we're talking about affecting people's lives here, while representing to others that we have a clue.
imagine if i had not included silicone. your counterargument only serves to try to justify op's ambiguity
but who am i kidding? this is HN. you probably only care about feeling superior ;)
