You currently just are making yourself look both arrogant and ridiculous. I
guess this is why Andrew sent his reply just to you, instead of giving you
another shovel to dig with.

Being "irrespective" of the list is c

would spare you some time, and a part of the Community wouldn't feel
driven out by another one.
Being eager to live in a world where everyone is not the same, and where
people feel like using the Distribution I contribute to, I'd rather you
