How do you mean "restricted to humans"? What exact cases do you have in mind?

I made the original comment in this thread, let me attempt to clarify.

The person you replied to thought that I was referring to humans exclusively (Close enough, I had not only humans but most primates in mind), while a comment above that level the person thought that I was referring very broadly to animal kingdom.

What the hell is going on here? Why are you being downvoted for politely asking for clarification?

Because the question is extremely stupid, he should take an extra 10 seconds and it should be obvious

This breaks the HN guidelines about civility. We ban accounts that do that, so please don't do it.

You should also have better manners than to presuppose "he" when speaking of a fellow user.

In which sense is this "obvious", hubert123? I am really interested in what the comment meant by "restricted to humans". Try to be explicit in explaining.
