I'm sorry, I have literally no idea what you're talking about. I know
you have a thing about JSONLD, but I don't understand how or why it is
relevant to these design discussions, which are 99% fine tuning
backwards/forwards compat needs around the existing Python code thats
out there and will be interacting with what we produce.

If you want to shift the needle here and get discussions talking about
things with JSONLD rather than PEP-426 (or some future leaner and less
enterprisy version) ... then for me at least, I need more clear
communication, less assumption that I have *any* overlap with where
you're coming from, and at least some connection to the problems we're
working on in your mails.

Still not following.
