I explained why I found it hard to understand that example.
Your response to my explanation is to argue with it. To argue with
someone's explanation of why something was confusing does not change
teh fact that it was confusing. You can either pay attention to the
cause, and perhaps reach a useful conclusion, or ignore the cause.
But ignoring it will not make the confusion not happen.
