As we're back to you offering one-word answers in which you deny the consequences of the words you post, this one will likely be my last on this tangent. There's only so many times I can repeat myself, and as you're only entertaining this for the sake of it, I'm sure you'll be relieved
Which leaves us with your arguing for the sake of arguing, which proves the entire derail, really.
I do wish I didn't have to wander around these tedious overworded pieces of "verbiage" as you claim them to be, but you're the one enforcing this standard on posts you decide to enjoy arguing with. Otherwise you avoid actually engaging with the argument and either just give "no u" (or an offensive equivalent) or attempt to tie people in semantic knots. Tedious all round, and yup, I'm well aware of my contribution in continuing the derail. I just had hope it'd turn out differently.
It's a shame, I really expected a better level of conversation given your positions on technical aspects such as UX, UI, AI and so on. Instead you opted for the personal angle (in support of a defense of a lack of diversity in video games), and then personally absolved yourself (very charitably!) of any blame for words that you chose to use.
I'd normally offer a PM, but you haven't responded to such in the past. It's probably a tad uncharitable of me, but I'm going to go ahead and assume that that'd defeat the point of arguing (publicly) just because you like the argument. Any genuine attempt at resolving any lines of debate died when you said that, really, but I tried regardless.

I just wanted to highlight this fantastic piece of backwards reasoning, based on your own standard that people can't assume anything about a written text. You said "developer", you did not say "human". There is no benefit in specifying developer unless you didn't mean to specify developer, and I have a hard time thinking you'd use a word without care. I cannot assume, naturally, which leads me to believe your choice of "developer" in-context, and not humans, which is a word you did not, in fact, say, until you later attempted to defend yourself in circles for a couple of pages.Devs are people, which I pointed out earlier. Doesn't need specific support if it holds for humans in general.
