The stylistic issues were simply not to be discussed; the net result of the critiques of the text was that he just lobbed an unapologetic note into the back about how the style may annoy "those with text editing proclivities" or some such, but that he is SMARTER THAN YOU ARE and ALL HIS FAILINGS ARE INTENTIONAL.
