    It’s possible for more than one thing to be bad, we don’t have to pick just one of the two.

    This is what they said; they implied the root comment was saying that two things couldn’t be bad or only one could be solved. But it didn’t. He said, paraphrasing, “there are two issues and I find this one to be far worse”.

    Ranking issues in terms of how bad they are seems a fairly normal thing to do. It also implies that there is more than one.

      I don’t agree with that interpretation.

      They simply stated that ranking things by “badness” also implies a ranking in terms of which one of those bad things is more urgent and should be addressed first - not that one thing was bad and that the other wasn’t, or that only one thing could be addressed.
