your take is that this is a ridiculous conspiracy. My take is that this is someone who saw something unusual and read something into it.

First of all, I'm going to say your interpretation (Blue) is relatively strong.
There's a few things in this universe that I'm competent with and they don't include semantics to any significant extent.
I was wrong. Or at least there's a fair chance that I was wrong.
If there's a 'spectrum' with 'factual'in the middle, 'reading something into it' to the right, and conspiracy to the far-right, the OP may well have been 'reading something into it'.
Sorry about that.
Thank you for taking time to clarify and in a respectful fashion.
As far as the 'professionalism' discussion, I'm not going to go there.
On social media, people with industry jobs often don't ever interact to even genuine high quality material.
Some of that is because of their own flaws, some of this is their employers' flaws, and some of that is because of 'our' flaws.
I'm not going to discourage or 'gatekeep' an Andy Serling.
In this case I sort of agree with him. In some cases I don't agree with things ranging from his style to his opinion.
However, the only stuff a mature version of myself would be interested in discussing with strong opinions is the horse racing stuff.
