I am not sure what else you are expecting me to add to each of these?
I'm not expecting anything more.

Demeaning and derogatory carry a very negative connotation and a rather damaging denotation. The level of disregard that those two terms carry for the consumer in your usage shows a level of disdain that's against the consumer in a rather offensive manner.

You follow? Regardless, there's no lack of points made.

Your take of "idiot proof" and my take are vastly different. Where we also differ, our thoughts of how open source affects the layman. We've both benefitted directly whereas the layman has benefited indirectly (web, mobile, embedded systems) but they're none the wise about open source in their daily operations.

To continue that discussion with our different vantage points would be just a waste of time. I just think the discussion was invariably going to be circular and I just don't have the time to waste (yours or mine).

Done (:Q!)
