Dude, i don't know what you remember but while you're at it calling people essentially zealots, why don't you cough up a link of a moderator calling someone an idiot. Until then, what you remember is a cool little story that just so happens to fit your narrative. Nobody ever made any of the claims you say they did.

All ED ever said about their missile FM is that it is what it is based on what data they have. They now have better data so it gets better. Damned be ED though.
