That's good as it caused unnecessary confusion and nonsense on another site in addition to this one.

Someone over there straightened it out so that it was clear that you weren't in the development industry with inside information or that some exterior glazing requirement existed. People do actually come on these sites looking for real information so making sure they remain reliable sources of information matters.
I clued in after re-reading it 2-3 times that it was probably inaccurate information but someone who doesn't follow this stuff won't.

Good policing - be sure to send me a PM or post a link about all these confused people on the other site. Was going to apologize but found nothing... (maybe you exaggerate a bit).
As you mentioned, I may not know much, but I’m not a fan of real know-it-alls like your uninformed correction to my 75 The Esplanade post (on that other site):
isaidso: “one small correction: this isn't real brick it's fake brick. These are panels with a thin veneer attached to the front that is meant to mimic brick.”
A photo posted on that thread showed the first row of layed brick and a brick-layer (holding a brick) on the scaffolding. FYI pre-cast brick veneer isn’t totally “fake” or “mimicing” - veneers are decorative but are made from the same materials/same processes as other brick. Maybe your search engine factoids don't always portray the smarter than everybody result you hope to achieve.
