I've done nothing of the sort. That's several times now you've made false
accusations towards me, Alan.
It takes one NAND to fail and you are out of business. You should review the
video links I've provided several times if nothing else before you make any
further accusations like that towards me. Anyone who has will be able to
determine that you're fucking around at this point. I'm willing to give you
the benefit of the doubt against my better judgement for a bit longer but if
you're going to continue being snit like as you did here, I won't continue
wasting my time attempting to educate you. I've already spent more time than
should be required for a reasonable individual as it is.

I didn't state otherwise.

I'm glad that if nothing else, you've learned what changed with Apple over
five years ago concerning booting from external media. So you won't be half
ass suggesting 'just use an external drive if your internal one fails'
anymore.
It's not a great deal of progress, but, I'll accept it.
