I do sometimes (often?) say 'there is no problem here' - not the same thing at all, but it does suggest that the issue is not simply something that no-one got around to considering. You have made a few personal remarks such as this recently. Please stop. They will not have any effect on me, so they are pointless and simply lower the tone of the discussion. On occasions where I have seen you to be looking at something objectively, and I can see some evidence of the problem, I have happily joined your investigation, as witness the recent occasion when you requested, and got, a sample file for investigation.
