The comment I was referring to was in fact yours. After re-reading your comment and my statement, I think I misunderstood your comment originally. I thought it was not only praising the process but also the content itself. Sorry about that.
I updated my comment accordingly to indicate my misunderstanding.
The “all the insights” was not meant as a literal quote but more as a cynical way of saying it. In hindsight, this is obviously bound to be misunderstood and I should have phrased it differently.
Thanks for the correction! I also appreciate the polite engagement.
As a quick clarification, I’m not a stickler for exact quotes (though e.g. the APA is), but I do think it’s important for paraphrases to be accurate.
I’ll also endeavor to be make my own comments harder to misinterpret going forwards, to minimize future misunderstandings.
To be clear, I also appreciate the content of this post, but more because it either brought new information to my attention, or summarized information I was aware of in the same place. (rather than because it offered particularly novel insights).
