I'll gladly answer your question. I would not normally do the thing you described (I 've already told you I don't disagree with your original point). If I did do it in 3D it would be in the context of wanting to deliver a message indirectly. For example, if I was standing in a theater line and noticed a rowdy group behind me behaving inappropriately, I might make a comment to my companion loudly enough for them to overhear. In this case I am choosing to express my disapproval without provoking a direct confrontation. That is just one example of perhaps many one could think of. Human discourse has complex dimensions. I don't think you and I have any real disagreement here. Please remember I was answering a post, not initiating an exchange about a third-party. Frankly, I was mildly uncomfortable having to think of a relevant way to answer while at the same time wishing to acknowledge a friendly post.
