Is there even the slightest shred of evidence for this statement?

Yes, his own words: “Dan informed me yesterday that I needed to remove that wording as it’s a ToS violation. I responded with a suggestion for a different approach.

Later: “...I responded rather tersely, suggesting that the implementation be fixed instead. In hindsight I should have either immediately removed the text or composed an explanation, but I was tired...

i.e. rather than bring his listings within the ToS, he suggested the ToS be altered. You(?) or I would have done as Dan had requested, then sought to contest the matter if it was significant enough.

To be fair, his response was “How about you implement bulk correctly instead? Seems a better solution to me.” (according to Dan). That doesn’t suggest that ToS be altered, rather that (as Lar saw it) a feature be (re-)implemented correctly.

I’m not clear on what the distinction is; was he not suggesting a change in the way BL operates rather than bring his listing within the ToS? Does that not imply that he wanted the ToS changed?

Or do you mean he wanted the wording to remain unchanged, but its application modified to suit his wants. If that is the case, you are splitting hairs!
