Whether foreigners are income-taxed at 20% or 48% cannot be the answer¹. Clearly Portugal's problems are much deeper than that, going back to 1974 and beyond. To name one, Portugal…

Well yes, that's my point – the process is not trivial, with surprising technical details. For a more in-depth take on grooves – at least more in-depth relative to "concentric circ…

Care to share why? I've been a Hetzner customer for nearly 10 years now. I just checked – first invoice in June 2014. And during that period, Hetzner's support – which I needed may…

I don't think WP:NOTE or WP:RELIABLE as such are what ruffles people's feathers. Rather, it's Wikipedia's insistence on pre-chewed secondary sources from legacy media – the roundab…
