    Fair point, but I did say 'let's imagine'.

I know, I saw that, and it made me uncertain, but it didn't clearly
tell me that this was purely hypothetical.  It looked like a way of

Why take the risk of being misunderstood, when by using a fictional
name (or no name at all) you could avoid it completely and still make
the same point?
