I haven't blamed Robert's code, merely asked him to consider that it is
something other HS, since we have no evidence either way at present
because the issue is sporadic and has not been replicated as yet, with
no specific detail leading to any section of code.

Quoted out of context, it is. My full comment is "Please don't continue
to make wild speculations about things related to HS and recovery, so
that issues do not become confused; there is no need to comment on every
thread." ... by which I mean threads related to HS and recovery. I
respect everybody's right to free speech here, but I would say the same
to anyone if they do it repeatedly. I'm not the first to make such a
comment on hackers either.
