Reapers were never Angels. This was established over many seasons, through various statements from characters, as well as the Reapers' own abilities and immunities. And when the retcon happened, it happened with a minor comment from a character who should know better. I drew a parallel between these two retcons, presented a clear and concise argument, yet all anyone seems to do is whine that it can't be a retcon because it would mean a retcon (changed in established continuity). No addressing the actual argument; just "It can't be, because if it were, then it would be". And if that seems illogical, that's because it is. It's your "argument".

And now you even insult me. Feel free to do so if it makes you feel any better. I have no need to insult any of you because I know my argument is sound.
