This is the opposite of motivation for me. Some of us here actually spend a
lot of time trying to get things absolutely correct, only to be met with a
strong desire to get it less than correct and highly confused. This is not
rewarding.

Then you do not understand what you wrote, either.

This is not true. It is horribly confused.

I no longer know where you went wrong, so I cannot help you.
