This is some kind of technological No True Scotsman you keep doing.

Also, please stop grossly misreading the comments of others. You consistently do it to numerous people here.

This has nothing to do with "No True Scotman", because my definitions and assumptions are not flexible. They are defined by the Qubes developers and documented. You misunderstanding me does not equal me being wrong.

When I say "this tool protects you" and you reply "it doesn't protect you if you misuse it; you give dangerous advice", you are the one misleading everyone. (Same with the kill switches on Librem 5.) Other people asked me for details instead of making a personal attack, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47868133

Perhaps you are right that I could add more details for newcomers, but I was not wrong or harmful, unless you think every advice must have a full documentation for tools attached to it.
