*sigh* Am I just having trouble with imprecise speech lately, or are people on this mailing list deliberately nitpicky about semantics?

Is that an intellectual debater thing? It's something I haven't done lately; I guess I've grown unused to it.

They can be rather picky about semantics and yes, it is an intellectual debater thing. Many of the threads are highflown intellectual musings and debates, discussion of ideas and concepts. Do not take it personally when they pick your words to pieces, analyze and question exhaustively what you really mean by word choices, etc.

It's a metaprogrammer list, so the style of some of the responses sort of makes sense, taken in that context.
