Can you please point out which of my words led you to conclude that I
was assuming bad faith?
For what it's worth, I have *never* assumed bad faith, and I don't think
I said anything to imply it either.

I pointed out facts. I did not engage in speculation beyond the facts.
Here, I think that you are making your own speculations based on the
facts that I uncovered, and are attributing those speculations to me.
That's unfair. Your speculations are not my responsibility.
Moreover, even if it were true that most people would make similar
speculations based on the facts I exposed, that's not my responsibility
either.

I agree that it's of some importance, but it's also a fundamentally hard
thing to do. I'm genuinely surprised by some of the claims being made
about my messages, especially the claim that I assumed "bad faith". I
didn't say anything to imply that, I didn't think it, and I still don't.
Thanks for discussing this, Leo. I appreciate your feedback, even where
we disagree.
Regards,
Mark
