Erm, that wasn't what I meant to happen when I sent you a PM suggesting you consider whether your previous version of that post was likely to escalate tensions. I think you've made it worse! Or perhaps I did by PMing you, though I was trying to help.
I'm only posting this publicly as I feel the need to distance myself from any implied moderator endorsement of the above. I'd personally advocate for just laughing and making it clearer what specifically the request for elaboration was about, though of course if I were writing all the posts on this forum it would get monotonous and weird pretty quickly. But it would be very, very polite!
