There exists a significant disparity between reflecting on errors constructively and unproductively fixating on past occurrences. A consensus has been achieved. What additional benefit could be derived from persisting in rehashing resolved matters?

Your perception of me, including labeling me as 'smug' or expressing amusement at this characterization, holds no relevance in this context. It remains unclear how such remarks add value to our ongoing discussion.
