It can be. There are clearly more complex doubles than

Oh come on. If the question was about C representations, why did Chris
put "more" in scare quotes? It's disingenuous to answer as if that was
the intent without first asking what Christ meant by "more" (rather than
just more).

It may be disingenuous, but deliberately misinterpreting his question as
if it had been one that would be on-topic in this newgroup is an
entirely appropriate way of reminding him that his question was off-topic.
