: This means your quote does not apply to him - because 'any and all' means
: 'any and all', not 'well, lots, geez, he defends them most of the time,
: isn't that good enough?'
: Tone down the hyperbole, or leave. Is that clear enough for you?
Yes. Just know that the hyperbole is there for a reason. I'm aware he's said something. If you came out and said, "Avateur, you only ever post saying negative things about 343" and if I replied, "Nuh uh, I can name three times that I've said nice things!", it holds no water. 97 out of 100, while not absolutely literally 100%, still may as well be "only ever". My saying "any and all" implies "may as well be always, because a handful of times where you don't is statistically insignificant." There's hyperbole, and then there's taking said hypberole too literally.
