There may be a correct term for the "It might be the case that X, and if so my opinion is Y, but it also might not be the case because I don't actually have any first-hand experience with the thing I'm talking about--just speculation" form of speech, but I don't know what it is.
Not weasel in the same sense as "people say" but just as content free. Is it just a todo list app, or is it something else/more? Does it have a web-based version, or does it not?
Obviously, I'm not sure, which is why I used the terms. I don't think you actually understand the purpose of my post, which was partly to point out that Chandler has been unfocused from the beginning. I don't know exactly what Chandler is because Chandler has been many things in its 6 and a half year life.
I briefly glanced over the project wiki, and gathered what I could without spending an inordinate amount of time there. From what I could gather from the rather verbose, and enterprisey documentation, the things I said seem true to me, but I can't be sure, because I haven't used the project and I haven't followed it in years.
As others have mentioned, this is not an encyclopedic article and I make no claims to expertise or authority on the topic. I made comments about my thoughts and opinions and presented them as such, as we all do on a daily basis here. Those comments seem to be interesting to many HN readers, and I'm sorry you don't consider them authoritative enough for a Hacker News discussion.
I appear to have now run out of things to say on the subject.
