The whole reply (excluding quotes from your post) was
Files set from a file local variables block are made buffer-local,
anyway. Perhaps reading the documentation will help.
So it consisted of two sentences. The first, longer sentence
explained your mistake. The second, shorter one, pointed out that
this was supposed to be covered in the documentation. Both sentences
were intended to help you deal with your problem.

Yes, you did, and by now it is reflecting badly on the attitude of
people with an alastairs-place.net mail address.
I suggest that you drop your diatribe which nobody will miss and
instead try concentrating on the technical merits and issues of your
patch.
