Thank you for continued efforts to bring better clarity to the subject article, something I always welcome. I think, though, we're dealing with an editor doing tendentious editing because, as it seems to be increasingly clear, they are not accepting of the sourced facts or have some kind of animus toward the subject. I have invited them (I'm not assuming their gender) to bring other reliable sources but they have so far refused, instead just seeming to grab at straws, saying the equivalent of "what about this?" even though their hypothesis turns up dry every time. I just thought it would be useful to try to explain the situation. Cheers! Stefen Tower_{s among the rest!} ^{Gab • Gruntwerk} 18:03, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, I appreciate the background - and you're welcome re my efforts. I'm largely concerned with clarity of construction; the only 'expertise' I have is what I've learned from my wife, a lifelong horsewoman (I grew up in suburbia!). I can understand the other editor's confusion on this matter though - the sentences appear to have been originally constructed in an attempt to create the most brevity (desireable in the lede), but it winds up cramming too much info under one 'banner'. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 18:24, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
