> I didn't quote anything from the article.

You referred to it: "just now I glanced at the article and it seems the author writes in a confusing way..."

> I was responding to the comment, not the article.

It sure looks like you were responding to both, and I addressed both. Also, you're going to have a hard time understanding HN comments if you don't read top-level comments as responses to the article, even if they don't start with "I agree with the article" as max_k's comment did.
