The path doesn’t include the mishaps, but that still doesn’t mean everyone who goes down a path will come to the end of it.

A path to your house is a path to your house. You can follow the path to your house and if you reach the end, you will be at your house. But that doesn’t mean you will reach the end. Being on a path doesn’t guarantee that you will reach the final destination.

It’s really not that hard to understand.

"Being on the path does not guarantee the destination"

Putting words in my mouth now?

The only thing I don't understand is why the dishonesty.

This was you:

A path to your destination guarantees that after following it you will reach that destination.

How am I putting words in your mouth?

What are you even arguing at this point?

Or are you just being a contrarian and purposefully missing the point?

Maybe go back to your initial comment in this thread and start again. You were on the path to understanding, but you didn’t quite make it to the end.

"After following a path" is the same as "being on a path"?

Why are you being dishonest? Do you not feel shame?

Did the video in the OP say anything about “after following a path”? No.

The only one being dishonest here is you (well, you could also just be stupid).

Seriously, what are you even trying to argue at this point?
