No, I did lump you with the trolls. ... please accept my sincerest apologies. Thanks for explaining it again.

No worries. Humbly accepted. Here is perhaps a good example of a thoughtful post that was immediately stamped "troll". I probably would have thought the same at the time in July at my future's peril:
This is why I have liquidated my position in Bitcoins. There is very little upside going forward. No forward moves of late have any traction whatsoever and demand continues to lag. Way too little upside for such a risky proposition so my advice is to move into dollars. Only a significant change in the economy could alter this forecast.
Are you trolling?
