I don't need to get any better at debugging or testing, and my programming ways don't need to change. Anyway, all that is irrelevant to my question.

Hubris is one of the virtues of a programmer. This isn't hubris. This is "stick my head in the sand". This is "stick my fingers in my ears and say 'I can't hear you'". Hubris does not mean you claim personal perfection. You make that claim, and, like most such claims, it is just flat wrong.

You need to step back and chill out, dude.

If this were Usenet, people would be commenting on the tightness of the death spiral. Pull up! Pull up!

No, wait. Roll out, *then* pull up! You keep pullin up, but all it does is make the spiral tighter. Pretty soon, the wings come off.

You seem to have gotting yourself heavily invested in this tool thingy. You come asking for wisdom, but you do worse than ignore it. You are like the guy trapped by floods who spurned two boats and a helicopter come to rescue him saying "God will save me". When he then gets a chance to ask God why he didn't, God says "I sent two boats and a helicopter. Whadda ya want?"

I'm getting tired of downvoting your nodes -- the ones that really deserve it. It's not fun. When more than half, and perhaps two-thirds of all the nodes you have written have a negative reputation, one has to wonder. The big foam clue bats are getting ratty from the amount of use they have gotten on your account.
