What it suggests to me is that there are tools being used that
you aren't aware of.

What that suggests to me is that you feel the need to snipe without
sharing any actual information.

Of course there are tools that I'm not aware of.  I would have
thought that would be too obvious to bother stating.

Are you aware of any such tools?  If so, do you have some reason
for concealing information about them?  If not, what is the basis
for your assumption that such tools exist?
