I think I understand why Matt get’s so mad at Cheryl, claiming she is verbose and confusing. He got angry with one of her answers on CARM (titled: this is perfect example) claiming it was long and confusing. Problem is that it was a short answer. Other problem is that he does not understand her answers. I don’t think he is used to laying foundations of reasoning and building on them. He’s more a one or two level kind of guy. He’s not a scholar. And from what I can tell he doesn’t want to or know how to dig.
That makes it difficult for one to reason with him. He really does need answers that are one step at a time. Matt has claimed himself to be something that he is not. Thus when we think he “should” know something because of his claims, we are mistaken because his claims are not clear. Thus, we cannot assume that he “should” know anything and start from a different perspective.
Make any sense?
