... after I've already pointed you at archived emails from Linus
himself giving you all the information you need, and me stating the
reasons for it being the way it is.

Why can you not accept what has already been said?  Why do you need
to continually re-open old discussions only to be told the same thing
as has already been said?  Why this "if I don't get the answer I want,
I'm going to keep on trying until I do" attitude?
