I don't mind downvotes, I just take them as someone didn't like what I said but dismiss them without any further engagement, though I appreciate your sentiment as well as the content of the comments.
I've found it to be an effective way of learning or gaining a better understanding to state the way I see something when it doesn't agree with the way someone else explains something. I just learned that mayonnaise can be made from egg yolks in addition to whites after making a similar comment to see if they had mistakenly said "yolk" instead of "white".
So thanks for the info and the willingness to explore it a bit more in the context I added!
