Just because people have written something does not make it so.  I
don't expect people to take what I write on face value; I see no
reason why I should automatically accept that everything somebody on
your side of the argument writes must automatically be correct.

I think and have written that it would not be harmful from the
technical point of view.  I guess the fact that I think and write this
automatically makes me correct?

Please.  I'm not correct simply because I had an idea.  Whether or not
I am correct depends on more substantial analysis.
