And I don't see where any technical point was "just refuted" when it could have just been checked by Moron.

I was pointing out the root cause of the problem was that Windows usedmandatory locking. To this, he replied advisory locking was being used.

It looks to me like you missed the point.

I had no comment to make on whether flock should or shouldn't be used. I'm not sure I'd call that missing the point. I was explaining the root cause of the problem in response to someone claiming it was caused by DATA behaving differently on Windows and unix. (It doesn't.)
