Handled with caution is fine, specific ones singled
out for special
treatment is not.
Bjorn's handling of it may have been clumsy (and that username raises an
eyebrow), but I think the essential point he was trying to make still
stands.
(Also, you both seem to be assuming less than complete good faith on the
part of the other. I really don't see that as eing the case for either of
you. I see no reason this can't be worked out in a mutually satisfactory
manner now and for the future.)
I see no reason why each of the thousands of secondary references shouldn't
have attention paid to them in principle. We have a reference checking
project, after all.
