Please show me where you explained that Vivaldi's source code is harder to investigate because "users need to download a 2 GB repo" or a "tarball dump".
Is English your first language? Do you understand the definition of "so" in the sentence you typed?
I'm asking you what the misinformation is. Is this harder to investigate because the software is closed source? In my mind undoubtedly yes. I know it was harder for ME to investigate because it wasn't open source - no open issue trackers, SCM repository, whatever.
So please tell me why what I said was misinformation - I'm really curious.
