Oct 13, 2013 at 15:43 comment added geomagas Well, if the first sentence was the problem, I removed it, since it didn't agree with the rest of the answer anyway -- meaning that, although I started it as "thoughts", it ended up addressing the real question. As to the question being more abstract, I think not, since it's expressed in a very specific way. If I'm wrong, I expect the OP to specify what is it that he implied but didn't put in words. I know that your comment was meant to help, unlike the Downvoter Anonymous behavior, and I appreciate it. I really do.

Oct 13, 2013 at 14:46 comment added maple_shaft You admit yourself that you aren't intending to answer the question and you are more or less clarifying your thoughts on the example he provided about what to do with the Renderer module. The question really is more abstract than that and needs a broader answer I think. I was providing an explanation for your benefit because I do think you raise good points and you mean well, but indeed it doesn't really address the key parts of the question.
Oct 13, 2013 at 13:36 comment added geomagas @maple_shaft: What do you mean? Isn't the question "What are the drawbacks of such a design?" Am I not making it clear enough that my points are potential drawbacks to the OP's suggested module architecture? The reason I never asked why I was downvoted is that I come from StackOverflow, where people do it all the time without caring to leave a comment about it -- which is frustrating, and more importantly non-constructive, but I'm used to it nevertheless, and tired of asking for an explanation.
Oct 13, 2013 at 13:23 comment added maple_shaft You are probably getting downvoted because you are not really answering the OP's specific question well. If your comment can't convey what you want to say then you probably need to have a broader conversation with the OP offline. Our chat room is a great place to do this.
