Thanks, that's not a nitpick at all. Can you provide a citation? It's all over the internet as a Dijkstra quote, and I'd like to be correct.

Fairly certain it is Dijkstra, in his own handwriting in 1984.

It seems I made some confusions, you were actually right. Apologies...

Nah, I think it's good to get the context. I never realised Dijkstra probably had Turing's paper in mind when he said that.
