Not helpful? What do you want anyway? The first three options you've
listed seem to be pretty exhaustive. Seems like you don't believe
what people tell you. Why are you asking for more opinions when you
don't believe the ones you have? What would be the point?

Yes it's true. No, it's not true. These are the two answers you might
get. How are you going to decide which one you believe?
