"I am not going to research in detail every fact or idea that I post. If this disturbs you I guess I can live with that."

Then I will just assume, when I hear forceful categorical statements from you, purporting to be substantiated, that it is just a stylistic quirk which you have--an idiosyncracy which meed not be considered a truth claim--but rather more a mode of expressing fashion...and I can live with that!

Also, when you insist that everyone else re-spell "is" everytime they use it, and disqualify themselves from the priviledge which you have alone reserved to your private status, I will likewise consider that as merely a token of the different set of expectations you place on others relative to yourself...and I can live with that!"

And you will not be surprised to know that I (at least in response to those those occasions where your indolence is simply slowing down the team) "am not going to research in detail every fact or idea that I post"...and I guess you can live with THAT, too!

I'm glad you made your stylistic quirks clear to me, and I assure you that I think none the worse of you for the sharing. Good for you, Tim!
