Heywood, I'm explaining the principles of computing to you. You're pigheadedly sticking to an asinine claim by making further asinine claims about the information I've provided you with, cited, linked, explained, and re-explained - as though you were a child.
If you want to construct a decent argument along these lines, you are going to have to come to terms with this. What you "observed", is not what you though it was. No harm, no foul. Why should you know anything about procedural gens? What you've done since having them explained to you, however, is on you. You could, at any point, incorporate this new information and modify your claim. You would still have to do more work...but it would be a start.
(this refusal to abandon the ground, btw, is how I know your argument is out of gas. This has to be true, for you...even if it isn't. You're more dedicated to the claim than you are to it's accuracy)
