Dear Paul please tell me where in the text of this thread I said that you applied this rule to the higher classes?
You sure know a lot about me and my abilities
Are you kidding me?! Do you really need a ruler for cases like 8.1 vs. 8.2 (hope you agree that these two pieces from Meiji?) or 7.2 vs 7.3 (hope you agree that these two pieces from Meiji either?).
On the basis of my experience.
Good luck with that!
Sorry, but this approach is wrong, as my little study clearly demonstrates.
Very gentlemanly remark Paul!
Well Paul, usually you don't answer to my questions, so please tell me why should I answer yours?
Because of imperious tone?
I don't think so Paul.
Not to mention all your experience of dealing with 7th and 8th classes (hundreds and hundreds...)
With such vast experience you certanly don't need my humble opinion.
