People can think whatever they want about it, but it doesn't make it true (or false). I'm not saying the system doesn't have limitations, I'm saying that just because the system has limitations does not mean that this is "sorta true, but not really true".

And I didn't say anything like that... so I'm not sure what your point is here.

What I've been saying for the past three or so replies to you is that with the way you worded it, it might lead other people to think that way (the "sorta true, but not really" way), which is why yes, you can say that it's because of a limitation of the system, but (presuming you want to enlighten people about it), you then have to explain what the limitation is, and that it doesn't mean that it's not correct just because it's due to a limitation. I wasn't trying to say you thought so, just that saying things like it might lead other people to think so, so you have to be careful with how you word it.
