Sarcasm on a message board like this is virtually always misunderstood. Even face to face, it can be hard to recognize sarcasm from someone you don't know. On a message board it's practically impossible. And the fact that you said, "Really, I am serious..." doesn't help.
Maybe I'm being obtuse, but even knowing that you were being sarcastic, I still don't really understand what "bigger picture" you're trying to communicate. Do you mind just spelling it out in black and white? I'm not trying to start a fight or anything; in fact I THINK I might agree with some of your points. Really.
