I disagree. Technical point #2 is a different concern than technical 
point #3. That's the reason why they have been presented to you as two 
different technical points.

So, I don't think your response to technical point #2 answers the 
concerns in technical point #3.

FWIW, my take is that many of them have just been ignored. But so be it.

Thanks for your time,
