Why should I feel threatened. Check tgb's comment for further clarification.

The fact that tgb "truly believes" the first, and erroneous, clarification was more useful means nothing to me. The first comment was simply incorrect. The impetus was to say someone was wrong. This was corrected by someone else, in a very civil manner, and you called that person a nazi. Grow up and leave meaningful comments or else don't bother.

It's not just that the first clarification was more useful. The first clarification was correct. The comment said the renders are beautiful, obviously meaning rendering in in the 3D rendering[1] sense. The clarification stated that they weren't rendered in that sense because the author used photoshop, which doesn't render in that sense.

Then the second clarification stated that rendering also meant drawing... and while it does, it also has a specific meaning within 3D representations which doesn't really fit here.

Nothing to call anyone a nazi over but the second clarification wasn't needed or useful.
