Not meaning to offend, just share an explanation.

I think Levi's point was that you were attacking the policy of saying 
things like "the first rule of security" which was a colloquial phrase 
never meant to be taken seriously, let alone criticized as you arguably 
had indeed done.  I don't think "obscurity" as a word or a concept is 
important to Levi's point here.  Arguably, any time someone rants about 
anything it can be taken as an attack.  This short deal I'm writing now 
could easily be taken so.  Your particular rant was fairly abrasive in 
the treatment of the subject matter you were discussing, without really 
separating Merrill from the subject matter, so it's an easy conclusion 
to draw.  I don't think it was your intent, but you didn't dodge it 
either.  Just saying.
