I’m a native fluent speaker of English

I’m the original poster here. I asked a question about “out” vs “outside.” It has since gone down this rabbit hole regarding the order of “fluent” and “native,” which I see as pure subjectivity – preference – and nothing more. But that’s the only thing that’s even been proffered in support of one order vs the other. In essence: This one sounds better to me. When I suggested that this discussion was pointless, it was pointed out to me that other people here find it very useful and informative.
