If that's indeed what happened, then I give him a lot of respect for being willing to change his mind when presented with evidence. As we all know that's a mark of good scholarship, and a quality human being in general. I wish it was more common in online discussions of scientific and historical matters.
As JKP notes, Paul engaged kindly and professionally with Redditors who replied to his posts, including a few who weren't nearly as kind to him. As I said in the OP of this thread, I never got a whiff of trickery or salesmanship from him. I think he's just an author trying to make a living.
I invited Paul Weiler on one of his Reddit threads to check out this forum, and I sincerely hope he does if he keeps working on the VMs, because I think he's got some things to contribute.
