This connection ios within the states airport connecting time for that airline. Outside that it is a a layover.
Both of your examples are within those guidelines. Thus, you went to a lot of work but you are still wrong - or, at least, I think your wrong. I can't really figure out your point

Perhaps if you read post #42 it might help your confusion

Technically people are extending their permission of stay in the Kingdom, not extending nor renewing their visa - and that's true.

My point however is that the Thais themselves often don't refer to it as an extension but as a renewal, and even more confusing as a renewal of extension, once there has been an initial extension. Or take this statement from a supposedly reputable visa agent -
"Currently, you can apply to renew your visa 45 days before it expires. You should renew as early as possible and not leave it to the last minute." That's on the same page where they describe it as an extension. You can find multiple examples of this confusion on many sites serving the immigration needs of foreigners
To revert to my original point: - use technical terms, as paborn does, and assume that outsiders will understand them the way insiders do is a recipe for confusion

What deep technicality about NON-STOP flight and CONNECTIOn was beyond your comprehension? I can draw pictures for you if it helps.

Once again you have demonstrated that you cannot follow a logical argument. Please provide the post number where I confuse non-stop and connection

I recently receivved some good advice and will not waste my time. I begin to wonder if you have ever traveled beyond what little village you live in.

Just as I supposed, you have found it does not exist - like the American insistence that there were WMD in Iraq
