*sigh*

another dodge - is there no end to your dissembling?

"STILL is the key word. ***In your application***, it means, denotation, literal: "even under those specific conditions you set forth" "

say it with me, brothers and sisters: IN. YOUR. APPLICATION.

by the way, "nevertheless" means, roughly, "even under those specific conditions you set forth" or "DESPITE those specific conditions you set forth"

potAYtos, potAHtos. you lied. baldly. badly. again.

and yes, it is a very good night.

No it doesn't. It means nevertheless. I posted the hint in my reply to your hypothesis demand. And your continued attempts at your own meanings runs afoul of the dictionary.

nev·er·the·less   Audio pronunciation of "nevertheless" ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (nvr-th-ls)
adv.

In spite of that; nonetheless; however: a small, nevertheless fatal error.
