Wolfe's brilliance or my denseness?

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Right, I got you, but I think he does that obvious answer stuff a lot too ("kypris who was hyacinth who was mother" type stuff, or "Garsceg who was Setr" (not sure if I remember that one right, but something like that from the Wizard Knight)  pretty straightforward identity statements but obviously somehow open to a whole lot of interpretations)
