Jóhann,
I always welcome your input, but stop using phrases like "pure
nonsense".

We are here to discuss technical details, you may not agree with
someone, in which case an explanation of why you do not agree is
important. But saying something is "pure nonsense" is not an explanation
and is not useful to convey your position.
