Honestly though, fuck Alina and her privacy invasion - good grief. Scientists need to be able to communicate in private without fear of some asshole coming back later and pointing out shit with perfect hindsight. @Kristian Andersen pointed me to this general area above. Turns out - yeah Delta - Lessons learned - who knew that yes we totally should have been freaking out! [shared file(s): image.png]

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.
