Obviously some kind of fad has been introduced in the Illustrator forum: Merging topics that *may* be related.
Whoever (from Adobe staff, as far as I can see?) thinks it's a good idea to merge threads that just *possibly* belong together:
Please think about it twice or better yet three times before you merge them. Recently, that kind of merging resulted in avoidable misunderstandings and even unintended misleading statements and deformations.
Thank you.
