in no way was i implying he was "making things up" but he has said that Flash Boys did a "bad job of explaining HFT" and on that website he links to it says its "dreadful". He also says he "answers this question so often" he made that site. but the site just lists books, but doesn't really answer any questions. Just pointing to other peoples books is not really answering a question. and i think if Flash Boys is "dreadful" he could point to a few concrete examples
