    I'm not quite sure Bruce wrote that article.

    @JimKasson has written:

    I'll bet Jim King didn't have anything to do with it.

    @IliahBorg has written:

    Well, the blunders in the article are very uncharacteristic for Bruce. So was him ignoring my e-mail.

    Insinuations regarding authorship and my email was ignored definitely signal the end of the line for me on this rollercoaster.

    @TechTalk has written:

    There's no mention of precision whatsoever.

    @JimKasson has written:

    That's not true at all. He looks at results of a raw file of precision that he specifies. He gives number of how many levels there are in various regions based on that precision. Did we read the same article?

    @TechTalk has written:

    Is this the new topic you want to hammer which is never mentioned in Bruce's article? It would take a very long time to discuss all of the topics never mentioned in his article — but, it's your time and energy to use as you like.

    Appears to be the new nail with the same hammer.

    @JimKasson has written:

    Did we read the same article?

    I read the article. It discusses how levels are distributed.

    You won't find mention of precision anywhere in the article because that's not the context within which levels were discussed. The quantity and precision of levels are the same in his comparisons, it's the difference in how they are distributed which is the topic discussed — not any difference in their precision.

    But, there's no reason to take my word for it. Readers can read the article for themselves to see what the topics are being discussed.

    12-bits is a measure of precision.

    If that's what you believe to be a topic of discussion within the scope and context of the article, that's your perception. Readers can decide that for themselves.

    @TechTalk

    You're just rinsing and repeating your earlier posts so the obvious question is "So what?" because it doesn't change anything.

    Bits as a measure of precision was never in dispute. This is what happens when you chop words out of sentences and lose all context.

    Speaking of context and perception — that was the dispute which I suggest readers decide for themselves. See above.

    Well....we'll just have to disagree on that one because it appeared you clearly disputed that precision of measurements was involved when you said

    If anything, you comment seems to be an opinion or perception.

    In any case you now saying

    you agree that

    Read the article and tell me whether you perceive the topic of discussion regarding levels is their precision or how they are distributed and let me know.

    How does precision become the topic of a discussion without ever mentioning the word precision at least once?

    Chopping words out of sentences to alter their context is a well-worn tactic.

    We're getting way off topic now. Perhaps start your own thread if you want to discuss further.

    I posted earlier why we'll just have to disagree on this one 🙂

    Getting off topic was precisely the context for my remarks. It's that context which you appear to have missed.
