I wrote it. English is my second language, so I reach for "what X is pointing at" constructions a lot — partly as a self-check that I've parsed the parent correctly. If any specific claim in there looks wrong or generated, happy to have it pointed out.

Gotcha, thx for the context.

Typically we'd see the second person "you/your/you're" used and not the third person ("flatpands") here, since you (tarr1124) are directly responding to their comment, as if in conversation with them. ie: "what you're pointing at..."

Otherwise it reads like you're ignoring them and talking around them.

Yeah, fair. The third-person thing is an old habit from parsing parents before I reply, but you're right that in a direct reply it reads cold. Second person from here on.
