No, my reply was quite polite.

"... pointing out to a stranger ..."

No, that's wrong. I started my post with "We've always got along well in the past, ...", which should have provided a hint. Beyond public posts and private message discussions here, I've also provided Laurent with material for the French site https://perl.developpez.com/ which he's involved with. So, no, not strangers.

Other stuff, such as this talk of myopia and xenophobia which first appeared in your post, I'll be ignoring.
