Thank you for explaining, I'm sorry for being insensitive. I already explained that I meant no disrespect towards AME. I disagree that the point I made has nothing to do with it. AME was at one time esoteric among the general US population, and that is the only way I'm saying that AME and OP's use of Old English letters are alike.

Is merely using AME as a comparison insensitive or are you just being polite?

I thought you were saying you support allowing many types of language and would not restrict any on this site, which doesn't seem insensitive.

I think they meant they were being insensitive by claiming I was just virtue signalling. Which is fair enough. They apologized.

I don't think we'll agree on this point, but I do appreciate the apology. Thank you.
