I am trying to help you to understand how people are reacting to
your posts. I suggested that saying that the grammar is incorrect
or contains an error would have expressed exactly what you intended
without triggering hostile reactions, which I'm assuming you
don't want.

I'm not aware that I have been attacked or that I have retaliated.
(No need to explain why you might think I have.)
One more thing: your Usenet or email client probably adds an
attribution line above any quoted text. I urge you to leave it
in place. It makes the discussion easier to follow, especially for
those of us who read the comp.lang.python Usenet newsgroup rather
than the mailing list.
I do not intend to reply further.
