''> And again, that's clearly intended as opinion. Opinion counts as opinion; not fact.''

Well given the current special-Olympics slapfight I'm having with Kuruni over on Incubus where he one of us, yet to be determined doesn't understand the difference between facts and opinions, you'll forgive me for being a little cautious about anyone making blase assertions about "This one is CLEARLY opinion, this other one is CLEARLY fact".

But anyway, that wasn't the point. Obiter dictum isn't opinion. It's fact, but not official fact. The judge says it, but it doesn't become part of the canon of law.

''>However, that is the primary method KC seems to use for answering fan questions. As such, it is official, which makes the setting information he hands out via Twitter canon.''

Nuh-uh. The primary method KC assembles canon is by publishing MGE books. That's where canon comes from. Twitter Q&As, as you may have seen me opine before, is just KC having a chat.
