I've never claimed it is a part of any "standard", I am saying it is "the standard". There's a difference. I'm using it a noun that means "an idea or thing used as a measure, norm or model in comparative evaluations".

Oh, so "non-standard" has nothing to do with a "standard"?

It's English, I know it's hard for you to understand. Maybe an adult can walk you through it?

You have made the claim that Agent is a non-standard newsreader, but now you are claiming that your use of the word "standard" should not be taken to mean a part of any "standard"? Is that it?

I meant the word as the noun standard. Look it up.

If I follow this convoluted logic that you are trying to foist off on us, a "standard" is a measure, norm, or model in comparative evaluations. Therefore, Agent is a "standard" because we can use it as a measure, norm, or model in comparative evaluations.

No, only if you don't understand the English language, which is why I'm sure you would do it.

So, Agent is both standard and non-standard. Doesn't the one rather neutralize the other?

I cannot explain the mess that is going on only inside your small head, Andreas.
