I disagree with your conclusion. Mainly because I think you're wrong, but a little bit because I feel like you are putting words into the mouths of NP and SK.

Its been my observation that NP is incapable of the level of nuance that your conclusion implies. Many on this board have flayed him for being ever so clumsy in how he conveys information. Plus, I think NP would have said what he meant rather than leaving it to MB posters to divine it.

I would have preferred that you pursued confirmation of your conclusion from NP/SK before sharing it on this board.
