Thank you for your nuanced and measured reply, Chin. Having dealt with primitive shibboliths before, I see where you’re coming from.
If bolding the word fact provides aid for you in understanding simple sentences, I have no problem with that. I also agree with your brilliant ascertain that then may follow if, unless the proper word would actually be than rather than then. Capice?
I’ll end this for now because I only devote three minutes per day to answering if/then questions on FR.
If I may be of further assistance, do feel free to drop me a line, Chin, although I may never respond; the risk is yours.
Have a fabulous day, Chin.
Very well played, sir. I salute you.
