The only repetition involved was your constant invoking of the
beating of the dead horse simile in lieu of counter-argument, of
which you had run out. And I can't see anything wrong in looking for
alternative routes from the Sea of Azov to (the province in Germany I
can't mention), whenever one of them had been blocked by evidence;
that in itself should show that I did not endlessly "repeat refuted
points" as you claim.
