That's not derailing at all. I remained fully within the subject at hand from the getgo.
See, to me, that REMOVES hurt. To hear the WHY behind statements works towards improvement. Like to hear that the old chestnut about "rule of thumb" has absolutely nothing to do with wifebeating. There's never been any record of any such law, yet people continue to be offended by it because they only know the false definition. To hear the truth, to hear practical usages and histories of things can only clarify them.
