If the statement does not help you, then just ignore it. No need to tell the 
world that it doesn't help you. It's akin to yelling "i'm a super programmer who 
is not helped by simple advice like that" -- nobody believes it...

What do you think it shows?

I'm not hiding, I'm not in an ivory tower, and it's not the case that I never 
need memcpy.

Why this hostility & lying?
