Not for me it hasn't, you seem to be describing a very specific edge case, which doesn't seem that honest of an example.
That's kind of an edge case though isn't it?
There may be cases sure, but this isn't one of them.
Maybe his case is an edge case.
That can't be true in all cases.
I'm not sure I understand your point. You are referring to rare edge cases that don't invalidate the general point.
That's a bit of an edge case.
I would consider this to be a corner case, that does not disprove the point I made.
Of course, there are edge cases to any scenario.
That's a bit of an edge case isn't it?
