Also correct.
"What you just said goes way beyond the original topic" does not at all imply "shut the fuck up about it". That's an implication you created out of your own subconscious biases.
The discussion we're having right now has strayed pretty far from the original topic, but I'm not disapproving of it.
I never said it implied "shut up" if that's where the confusion comes from.
That means "shut up".
Or "dismissed."
I don't mean "shut up" though, those are on their own words put into my mouth. Something I don't aim to do in asking how implying my answer contrasts with the intention of the question doesn't in turn imply said answer is unfitting.
I have spoken.
