Okay. I was mainly responding to your earlier dogma: "A cappuccino is made
by first making espresso. Then adding frothed (steamed) milk. There is NO
other way."

If you now say the two methods are equivalent, I see no reason to belabor
the issue. I'm not persnickety about cappuccino in any case. Hell, I even
like it cold.
