How sweet of you! No sooner did I mention how enjoyable it was to see your impotent apoplexy return, than you let loose another volley (I hope this doesn't come across as churlish, but I have to say that while the impotence is unparalleled, the apoplexy is not quite at the level it reached before you realized you were signalling your frustration at having your every argument refuted.)
On the subject of arguments, I see that this is the first time in I-can't-be-bothered-to-count that you have you have not tried to insinuate (without an actual argument) that the points I made in my preceding post are invalid (IIRC, the last time you tried an actual argument, it was the fiasco in which you ended up attempting to pass off 'slightly' as a conversational synonym for 'exponential'.) Could it be that you have finally realized what Mark Twain was going on about in his well-known aphorism about keeping quiet or removing doubt? Or, after having taken another turn around the bowl (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9610430), will you once again repeat the same old insinuations that failed before? My money is on the latter.
If you are unsure where to start, may I suggest (once again) that you attempt an actual explanation (as opposed to either merely insinuating that there is an explanation to be found somewhere, or attempting to rewrite your original claims as something completely different) as to why you think Eslaught's explanation does not refute your original claim about the complexity of all stack-frame-based explanations?
