5. The readers are being evasive for some reason. This is a standard reaction when people are completely defeated, and is by no means unusual on the 'net. It is almost always the reason when people simply declare incomprehension without reason. Genuine incomprehension almost invariably asks for a particular word or phrase to be explained, especially when a reason is requested.
This too is a real possibility, although once again, it incontrovertibly does not apply here since the request for clarification by all has been genuine. [/quote]
