Now I do.

I'm not so sure.

There is no "talking past" involved when taking issue with John's
blanket statements that it is a "time burning distraction" to make
custom sized tenons instead of purchasing them, when it is in fact a
time saving, cost effective, and most often necessary requirement in the
application of good joinery principles when using loose tenon joinery.

That, in a nutshell, is all there is to it ...
