Thank you for your words of critique.

It is a little bit like the tip of an iceberg. We see very little, but we have knowledge allowing us to speculate how much we do not see.

Your comment would be more valuable if you pointed out where my knowledge faulted or my deduction was flawed.

FYI, After posting his response to my comment, David Bassi blocked me. I know that he responded, but I cannot read his riposte.

It is a known fault at Medium. If someone wants to block another member, that person should not see the posts of the blocked party. However, the blocked persons should be able to see posts by the members who blocked them and should be able to post comments. The persons who blocked them would not see those posts.

It is the only fair system. In the current system, individuals who block other members have the unfair advantage.
