I have never emailed, texted, called, been called by, met, spoken to or
seen Leon Wagner, and I don't need to seek his permission to hold a point
of view, write an RfD, discuss it on clf, refine it, and have it accepted
or rejected in the standard after suitable discussion.

As part of the discussion I will deal with your more cogent and coherent
points, but this isn't one of them. You haven't answered my last post
about your FMITE locals. If you do so and stick to the subject, I'll
respond.
