I didn't say anything about his home life? You got the >s all wrong and I
don't remember who made that statement.
As far as I remember from his bio, his mother pampered him and shielded him
from his father who was a bit distant and stern.

Did you notice the failure % of his work? Architecture is the art AND
science of building well. He was arrogant. His arrogance fueled his
tendency to have everything his way even in those areas where he SHOULD have
recognized his superiors (especially in those projects he was pushing
against the edge of techonology) i.e. his OWN hired engineers! Extremely
arrogant people don't recognize superiors! It's really that simple.

Since your point is just to be sarcastic with actual no point, there's
nothing to answer, except, perhaps, I can state that I can be just as
sarcastic if I choose to be as you and perhaps better but I'm really not in
the mood to fight out.
