    What? Asking you to explain something is rude? I am legitimately confused as to why you think that’s rude.

      But feel free to explain why they’re the same.

      This is you being rude and condescending, because you think I was claiming that flying the helicopter on Mars was somehow technologically equivalent to an entire launching of a probe.

      You telling me to “feel free to explain” is based entirely on you thinking that you’re dunking on me. Since that isn’t my arguement, you aren’t.

      You’re not legitimately confused about it either.

        I’m sorry, that’s just not true. You’re making all sorts of assumptions which are false. I honestly wanted an explanation.

          Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.

          You thought (incorrectly) that I was arguing that the helicopter probe by itself was as technologically impressive as the entire mission that delivered it.

          That’s why you used the “feel free to explain” verbiage.
