That's true, but there's no combination of links that would get you all the discussions. There were 4 different approaches attempted, each one with their own thread. Also, since other people didn't follow the threads correctly I had to send different versions of those threads. > Also, this particular point was not meant as a critique of your > current submission.

He was aware of the old discussions, as he was part of them, but he chose to disengage from them [1]. Either way I don't see why would anyone should feel bad about not being aware of all the hundreds of responses over dozens of threads over several years. All we can ask from contributors giving their feedback for free is their attempt to do their best, nothing more. Cheers.
