This is not nonsense.

It seems you've never looked for a real mistake.

Not an error that is marked with an error, but an error that makes the log file look "different".

It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I don't want to learn anything. But not everything new is good. And you don't get as far with everything new as with the tried and tested.
