I have become intensely interested in what you say in brackets*

Parentheses, not brackets. (I might overuse parentheses but I seldom use brackets [except as a special device when quoting].)

Reasons cannot be wrong *because* they are not explicitly given.

You might be right. Maybe I should have used a comma before "because".

The point, however, is that a failure to explain the reasons for something like browser sniffing for CSS is a sure enough symptom of the reasons being wrong. In this case, the subsequent posts from the OP have confirmed that this conclusion was correct, as usual.

While there are merits in the philosophy of positivism so
excitingly propagated by certain thinkers loosely centred on
Vienna earlier last century, most other thinkers had come to see
its flaws by at least the middle of that century.

Is your virus control up-to-date? It seems like your system has a virus that causes fragments of text to be inserted into your postings quite randomly, or with rudimentary AI.
