The second para of the section on 'Abuse' draws upon a single source. My [ addition] in that section was verbatim copy of a line from that same source. I don't see any reason why my edit must be reverted while the rest of content drawn from that source has stayed. Especially seeking reasons for the reverting done by ViperSnake151. - Mukt ( talk) 10:06, 15 November 2021 (UTC) [EDIT: for typos] reply

Firstly, for copyright reasons we cannot use verbatim wording. Secondly, I had concerns that in the context of the article with the wording of the rest of that specific paragraph, that the statement could be misinterpreted as a WP:FRINGE argument in support of such usage. I rewrote the sentence entirely to add more context. ViperSnake151  Talk  18:36, 15 December 2021 (UTC) reply
