So you answer would be that nothing can be established, right? And
it might not be a clue, it could be something that leads away from the

Why bother responding if what you respond if you are just going to
spout random nonsense that doesn`t pertain to anything I`ve said?

You didn`t address what I asked. You erected a strawman instead.
