Because it was a red herring not worthy of a reply. Nobody is arguing that Lindsey’s not an amazing producer or rock legend.

You should take a look at the Billboard attendance for Stevie's 24 Tour. Sure, it's great she made a lot of money in ticket sales and sold out The Forum and MSG which Lindsey could not do on his own happily for you.
You'll notice a lot of 7k and 8k numbers in the data. They're not Streisand or Cher numbers. When she didn't have the Pretenders, she played small cities like Green Bay, Youngstown, and St. Charles.

I’m not interested in seeing the forest for the trees. It was still the biggest solo tour of her career.

When was the last time you saw Stevie solo? I went to plenty of Stevie shows in the 2000s where they were not even close to sold out. Two of them my friends walked into the theater when the show was still going on without tickets.

I’m not a Stevie solo fan. In fact, I’ve seen her only once solo, when Sheryl Crow was in the band. By contrast, I’ve seen Lindsey outside of Fleetwood Mac four times, the most of the lot.

You don't post with impartiality. Your displeasure for Lindsey is as striking as coyote piss.

Depends on the topic. For example, whenever someone tries to claim Lindsey was misogynistic or abusive towards Stevie, I call BS. She’s never claimed he did, and I have no doubt in her ability to throw him under the bus, so if it was remotely true, she would have shouted it from the mountain by now. Also, it doesn’t fit the pattern. She demonstrably didn’t need him after 1981 yet continued working with him.
