I know it is not your intent, but this is rather conceited. Reading
between the lines it says that the reader does not have the capacity for
learning. That the reader cannot understand that which you understand. I
contend that looking at a harmless example *would* be of much benefit to
all who read it regardless of the OS or architecture.  I'll bet that
others agree.

So let's see a harmless example!
