Being tangential to the overall topic doesn't mean you're addressing the actual main point of this thread

I think it's important to define exactly how "this thead" is being used in this context. When I use "this thread", it's to refer to our exchange of comments; it doesn't refer to all comments under OP's post. I'm not sure if there's an official definition for the term — perhaps I am not using the term in a commonly understood way. I think it's also important to define "on topic", though that may be a bit more difficult in this context. I would argue that we are on topic, but I don't have a super precise way to define it — perhaps you do?
