I did not criticize you.  I made observations that were critical of your
approach.

You *may* be right about "progress bars/dots" being of no value.  I only
observed that you chose to use sarcasm to debase a fellow poster in your
attempt to prove your assertion .  I merely pointed out that in many
cases that turns people off and they may summarily dismiss what you have
to say.

I also find it "interesting" (some may term it hypocritical) that you've
chosen to conclude with "This is the end of our conversation" and take
issue with poc's "We're done here".
