I hope I can explain this properly. I would be grateful for your opinions.
I read an article within the wider area (but not topic) of my PhD. I am interested in X subject, and the article is about Z. I believe (knowingly or unknowingly) this guy is actually making a great example for the X subject, without even saying anything about the X subject. I would like to make this comment in my thesis. What I am trying to say is a positive thing, not accusing the author for anything. Do you think it would be ok to write this opinion and cite his article?
I would probably do as you say and mention that this was not the author's intention but that the idea/ findings may translate well to blah blah...
No problem, I always like to over complicate things myself so may have done the same.
Thanks for asking about the changes. I have done all bar the disputed one. I am hoping to talk to my internal about it today.
