> You keep mentioning xkcd;

Actually you're thinking of the other guy. I deliberately tried to distance myself from that comic after it became clear that me initial point was completely misunderstood as an attack against Randal / that comic specifically. My point was about how people misinterpret that comic, and ironically everyone (including yourself) misinterpreted my post about that comic.

Quite frankly, I wish I never bothered to begin with.

> but that comic was not (even if other people are using it as an example) suggesting that people use just two words strung together. It specifically uses 4 words, and specifically gives the number in the list of words to chose from. It gives both of those numbers so the strength and weakness can be shown.

That was understood right from the start.
