Is this just because of the lack of context, or because of the content
of my response to the OP following the question?

And with all the netiquette talk being passed around, why isn't this a
new thread instead of hijacking the OP's original question, and
engaging in bickering about netiquette that goes
on all the time?

And it seems redundant to argue this topic other than to comment, and
let it pass, unless there's seems to be a legitimate reason why
someone 'disobeyed' posting policy.
