You don't get it.

I'm neither happy nor unhappy that you're taking my advice (if that's what's happening) about the spokes, nor do you owe me an explanation for not taking my advice. I'm not invested in your wheel either way. I offered advice that I thought would help, but it's a free country, and there's no obligation to accept it.

OTOH, if you don't like the advice, there's no reason to get huffy about it. Good luck with the wheel, ride it in good health, but don't expect me to respond to your future posts.
