I get that point, but the original post I replied to didn't say "Hey, I know have $THING set up when I never had it before", he said "I learned to do $THING", which is a whole different assertion.

I'm not contending the assertion that he now has a thing he did not have before, I'm contending the assertion that he has learned something.
