One, I'm glad you liked what you term Daniel's 'value add', but you're
disregarding my point:  What I was saying was that it had nothing to do
with the querents' problems (Akkana and Maestro).  

Two, I'd _already_ corrected the bit about which datum is PCI ID.
Daniel wanted to to call attention, after the fact, to an unimportant
error I'd already corrected.

You call that helpful?  OK, noted.

'Not lifted a finger at all' referred to Daniel not having lifted a
finger _to help_.  To review:

   Daniel, this is the second time in a row you've been extremely picky
   about fine details of postings where I'm working to help people, in
   situations where you've not lifted a finger at all. 

Context, it matters.

On the evidence, you misparsed, so editorialising seems premature.

(Also, mildly objecting to annoying behaviour isn't impugning the other
party's attitudes or motives.  It's odd you assumed that; it has nothing
to do with what I wrote.)

Anyway, all minor stuff.
