  • It almost feels like we have duplicate comments suggesting that this question is a duplicate? Can that be right? On a more serious note, that question’s answer does not explain the ., so it is not a duplicate. Commented Mar 26, 2022 at 12:51

    @Quasímodo I assume that before doing any of that, we should head to the proposed duplicate and cast some downvotes and close votes there. It currently has a score of 9 and two answers. One answer is dodgy, but even that answer has a score of 10. There seem to be a lot of inconsistencies here. Commented Mar 27, 2022 at 6:31
