I never deviated from red way, you did. And with hollow bones, you can't wear HA, that has always been the reasoning behind it. If you read all of the race profile, you'd see at the bottom it says they make good WARRIORS, as well as merchants and hunters and all manner of things.
Stop twisting words around, it doesn't help your case. I said a combat magic (though smiths use it in a non combat fashion) is useful to a warrior, whose concept of what is practical is different from say, a baker or merchant. If you were a merchant, you would indeed not find much practical use in the way aside from beating up thieves. If you were a warrior, whats practical changes radically, as what most of you do is fighting, you probably want a way that's very good at it, hence practical.
You don't get the sole judgment on whether a subject has closed, just so you can use it to backup your own shoddy argument.
Do you see where you made YOUR mistake?
