Ok, so I guess I don't know about those aspects. You still haven't proven me wrong in that I don't know some.

I'm glad you asked. Showtext versus showimg, for example.

It would help. Aesthetics are important to people; that's why there is a market for video cards.

False analogy. Right now, there is enough of a scripting language on Graal to work. Right now, aesthetics should be worked on to encourage people to play. We're not talking about the creation of a new script engine, as it is already in existence. Give people a chance to catch up.

You asked me what the point was. Rather than giving an answer, you try to shift the answering on to me. If you aren't doing this for the publication of your opinions, why are you doing it?

You're defending yourself with a question. Rather than answering a question, you try to shift the answering to your opponent. Shady and ineffective.

I'm telling you that I'm knocking down the things you are saying, even though you seem to worship them. You're not nearly as clever as you think you are.

Updates are updates, man. An update to a system is an update to a system. The system is brought up to date, changed to a more advanced version of itself. If the system is not changed, it is not upated. Please try to think about the multiple possibilities of the meanings of words, instead of either/or-ing.

Rumors. Until I actually see proof.

The overall damage can be more significant.

I'm sure an exploit is possible.

That's correct. It doesn't have real features until the public can actually observe them. Until there is aesthetic proof, all you have is hearsay by people who might just be trying to sound important.
