Lol, I made the comment to highlight your attitude and send it right back at you, and you both 1) criticize something I didn't say or mention, and 2) totally miss the point of how your initial comment came across, completely missing the fact that I was using your tactic back at you, and try to make me feel bad for taking your approach and spinning it right back at you. That's... oof.

I'd fall within that category as well (not great at touch typing, or physical for that matter) as I'm a stroke survivor who, among other losses, only has the useful capacity of one hand along with partial blindness. But voice messages (in many popular sms replacement programs) and speech to text are available.

It was a sharp nudge to perhaps reevaluate your initial... tone, I suppose is the best term. Just a pinch (or ten) of your 'everyone should be exactly like me, and if they aren't they are inept at being' isn't exactly well-received (which, hey, you did understand that). Doubling down certainly is an option, but it's not what I'd say was anywhere near the correct one.
