In short a supported statement has reasons that aim to argue why the statem= ent=20 is true. You say that there is no such a thing as a primary package manager, but fai= l=20 to state any reason (here or in other mails) as to why this is true. Instea= d=20 of arguing why my support is false you just say that I am saying things tha= t=20 are not true. This is an unbased accusation. This last email is close to slander.
