I said nothing of the sort. Being "honest" does not mean you have to give a middle finger to a panel that nominated you. The point of that Nobel was clearly recognition for their achievement; the category choice was mainly irrelevant.
You refuted an argument about being honest about accepting an award on the basis that the award pays a lot of money and grants one a great deal of popularity.
If your argument didn't involve money and popularity, then why did you choose those two specific criteria as the justification for accepting this award?
I want to be clear, I am not claiming that Dr. Hinton accepted the award in a dishonest manner or that he did it for money, I am simply refuting your position that money is a valid reason to disregard honesty for accepting a prestigious award.
