Oxidation Risk During Sparging?

It's arguing semantics, but no, improper oxygenation didn't cause it. Too much sulfite caused it, more oxygen may have fixed it.

Not really. As I said there is no "too much sulfite" its not enough oxygen.

Hell, I currently use 50ppm (more than your dose without issue) AND purge grist/vessels/piping sub 10ppb and have zero issues. If using your thought process, I would have nothing but issues.

You can get overly sulfury beer dumpable without sulfites. Which points to oxygen/fermentation issues. Case in point.

Are you saying I would still have had issues with that beer if I didn't have sulfites in it? I think not. Therefore, sulfites caused the issue. Oxygen (more than normal - i.e. extra on top of a proper dose) may have fixed it. It's like saying
'it wasn't eating pizza, beer and ice-cream everyday that made me overweight, it was not enough exercise. I can eat as much bad food as I want as long as I do enough exercise to counter it'.

I'm not 100% sure why you are not quoting my whole posts explaining, and only the ones that fit your narrative. However, you saying it wouldn't is pure speculation.

I will state again. "You can get overly sulfury beer, dumpable without sulfites. Which points to oxygen/fermentation issues. Case in point."

To rule out improper oxygenation, what did your DO meter say when you oxygenated?

It's not to fit a narrative. I always only quote the portion of the post that is relevant to set the context for my reply.

Except in over 500 batches of beer the only other one that I've had get the same sulfury issue was a sour beer fruited with passionfruit. Apparently (I found out after brewing it) that can be an issue with passionfruit. That was not anywhere near as bad as the pils - it was still quite a nice beer. So I'm certain that sulfites were the issue.
