It might be helpful if Andy could clarify whether the
interview in the noted article is accurate, or did the
reporter mangle his remarks and draw the wrong conclusions.

It was not accurate and either I miscommunicated with the reporter or
he simply got it wrong.

There is also a third possiblity:  An editor chopped things up in
order to make things fit.  Reporters rarely "have time" to get a story
reviewed by their sources, and editors rarely "have time" to get their
edits reviewed by the reporter.
