   Reading between the lines and being clear about something might be clear to   
   you and Theresa May, but is NOT a good way to understand the subject of a   
   thread.   
      
   Offcourse, copying Mohammed grafitti might 'cause a problem', as might   
   copying your old teachers stereotype gestures. So might a flat tire. But   
   extending a thread's subject to encompass your personal 'between the lines'   
   understanding, while permissible, would imo not be advisable here.
