The purpose was simply to bring JOG's attention onto a specific point where he assumed that XYZ could represent some kind of universal locator. Demonstrating that such approach was dangerous and could lead to absurd reasoning was the aim of my remarks. If I would have changed JOG's premise it would not have been honest on my part...

If you knew me better, you'd realize *scoring points* does not bring me any satisfaction but absurd reasoning deeply irritates me.
