Not entirely unrelatedly, strangers on the internet do not control my priorities or how I choose to use my time and energy, and I do not appreciate them attempting to dictate such. I also do not appreciate being accused of saying things I did not say -- the difference between "This is not important enough to me to spend any more time on" and "This is not important" is huge. Likewise, the difference between "This is mildly annoying" and "You should not do this" is huge.
