Re^5: Since when did "\N{U+5678}" ruffle feathers?

If that needless repetition was an overly ambigious critique, I'll back up to ask again the why that you did not answer.

I asked, why is this–

Since when did "\N{U+5678}" work as an alternative to "\x{5678}"?

n/t

–is inferior to this–

Since when did "\N{U+5678}" work as an alternative to "\x{5678}"?

Since when did "\N{U+5678}" work as an alternative to "\x{5678}"?

You answer apparently is, "Because. Also, if we just side-step the question and context for a moment and extrapolate to all posts ever and pretend like the word title doesn't mean something, it's obvious you're wrong to even ask why this OP was offensive."

Also, if we just side-step the question and context for a moment and extrapolate to all posts ever and pretend like the word title doesn't mean something, You're the one pretending the word title means something different that it does. The title is useful in some circumstances (e.g. searches, RAT, etc), but it's useless (or even detrimental) when reading the post. It's the post that should have the substance, and it's the title that's the derived value.	[reply]
