I would say that it qualifies as an admission of error, as well as evidence
that he is unaware (and unwilling to learn about) some aspects of human skeletal
anatomy that are essential for understanding the effects of cremation on the
human skeleton. It also seems to constitute pretty solid evidence that he
is completely uninterested in doing things like answering questions because
that would in fact advance understanding, something he appears to be utterly
lacking interest in. Instead he sees responding to questions with substance
rather than insult as diminishing his control over the direction and scope of
material posted, the only thing he seems to be concerned with.
