sideshowbarker: answer there seems pretty good, but added a comment

sideshowbarker: weird that both the person asking and answering have such a weird username, but perhaps that's the result of some API outage

<sideshowbarker>

annevk: thanks for commenting

But about the usernames — those auto-assigned/generated ones — quite a few people never actually change those

<sideshowbarker>
hmm, but one thing I notice now: the OP paid out a 300-point bounty for that answer — which seems a bit unusual given they only have 578 left…
08:55
<sideshowbarker>
…and especially also given that the question isn’t a how-do-I-fix-this-problem question but instead a “why?” question, paying out 300 Stack Overflow points on that kind of question seems pretty odd
08:55
<sideshowbarker>
still, it’s a pretty good question

StackOverflow points laundering 👀

Yeah, it's weird but it also doesn't seem like a straightforward copy-and-paste case given all the references and dates.

Hmm, Response.error() seems like a mistake. It's the only way you can get at a network error in the API whereby it's not a TypeError exception.

I suspect blame points to me. :-/

Well, I wasn't alone: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=26731. Very surprising oversight now.
