230:. It's very hard to make any kind of progress in a debate if one party doesn't state their position, but merely says "I disagree", or "I don't like it". I'm happy to keep chatting as long as it takes to resolve this properly, but in my view this argument has become so surreal it's comical.

It's unfortunate that someone has added examples of the "filled-in" versions (i.e. seven-point stars that have lost the attributes that make them heptagrams); calling these heptagrams is a misnomer and these examples should really be moved here.
