Right, right, no short story and there is no such thing as Macra.

Look, call it an extract if you really must, for the purposes of this discussion. (I am not granting the existence of a novelisation project in general, which still seems fairly ludicrous to me.) But this thing, this extract, was released by Harness. It was posted by him. It was not mentioned. Must I return to the A, B, C distinction? Whether you think C is an extract from B or that B never existed, the fact is that Cook's quote cannot be about C, but only A or (if it ever existed) B. That's just how the English language works.
(Please see my rebuttal on the other thread of the "if it had been part of Lockdown! she would have mentioned it".)
