Yes, of course it is a translation glitch - such things are very common between languages. In English, in that context, there is no way "coherently" was correct, or even appropriate, beyond attracting my amused and good-natured comment. One is allowed to smile :-)

" no other crew had recently completed more duty days coherently." What a terrible choice of words! Should we suppose that more duty days than that turned them all into gibbering idiots?

I do not have a narrative. I was trying to UNtwist your narrative. You actually said "in other words ... " Since you seem fond of pretzels and I am not, I'll leave it there.

We know that the *actual* infection rates for Europe are, in some cases, possibly even the the majority, certain to be significantly higher than their *REPORTED* infection rates. Therefore one would have to be very naive indeed to actually believe that the grossly unrealistic low *reported* infection rates for the countries cited in the foregoing post bare any resemblance whatever to the *actual* situation.

Do you actually have an opinion of Mr O'Leary's statement?

No need for abusive name calling, not even for excessive and inappropriate use of question marks.
