It's less than clear and more on the opaque side. Obviously I was being hyperbolic, smartguy.

That isn't what hyperbole is, either.

The phrase, "Could not be more opaque" or in proper sentence format, "It could not be more opaque"...is an exaggeration of what is really true which is "It's less clear and more on the opaque side". So in the original comment I was being hyperbolic.

Hyperbole: exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally

As far as the false dichotomy goes: Are negative and positive poles of magnetism a false dichotomy?

Have fun with your breadlines. What you see in that old Jew I do not understand.
