    Were you not condescending? Don’t you believe you started this?

    You could have said :

    • Revenue is not precise enough, operational profit would be a better metric
    • Operational profit is more representative of the situation and for HP it’s [insert value]

    or basically anything that prompts a discussion by kindly clarifying.

    Instead you basically said “Apples are not oranges” and now you are saying replies are toxic.

      This adds nothing to the topic at hand, sorry, but they’re right; that kind of snark is super Reddit. No offense ofc

        I’m not sure you’re understanding my perspective so I can make it explicit : I took their comment as snarky, not helpful, trying to make their view as objective without helping me and others understanding why their position was better.
