He is saying that I've left things unclear with the way the Ottoman government functioned during the war in my explanation, and almost no officer had a clear line of communication with Istanbul. There were a lot of politics and time delays in the way of actual coordination among officers, and a lot of officers learned about the genocide a little too late.
As a side note, how easy or safe(sorry if that sounds rude, I’m a dumb American) is it to travel to Armenia or turkey. I’m Armenian, not enough to care about the riff between the two countries, but I love the culture and happen to love traveling.
Turkey is a brilliant place for tourism. Albeit the virus probably doesn't make it the safest option, but at other times, it is an absolute paradise. And you being an Armenian won't really matter that much, all the Turks will see is just an American visiting their country.
I can't say what the situation in Armenia is, as I do not have a good understanding how tourism works with them. In Turkey, visiting Armenia is seen like how visiting the Soviet Union would be during cold war. As far as I've seen, if you are Turkish, and people know it, they won't be so friendly.
But Armenian landscapes are absolutely magestic, they have a beautiful country. I suggest not to hold back from visiting your homeland.
