My request for an interpreter was more basic than a suggestion to "name
names".
The interpretation I need is basic - that Larrey is behind one product and
Mike is behind another. Despite the fact that I'm a "list owner", it's news
to me. This fact, obvious to some, adds a dimension to the discussion
otherwise lost on some of us not waist-deep in the trade. And the fact that
you, Mike and Larrey, are "behind" different products does not devalue your
remarks in any way; but it does explain some of the body English, which is
otherwise somewhat mysterious, and becomes a sort of static.
There is an ancient Pakistani saying (involving discovering the physical
appearance of a telephone operator) covering this situation: unfortunately I
don't remember what it is.
