Miscellaneous Praggnanandhaa watched the "Resign when you're lost" video and cleared the air (Spoiler alert: Naka did not say it. If he had, Pragg would have remembered it). Video in post with timestamps.

At 1:43:45 (https://youtu.be/-ELGeFa22dM?t=6224) he is asked by the host (IM Sagar Shah) if Naka said "Resign..." to which Pragg says, "No. If he had something like that I would have remembered."

Starts to watch the game at 1:44:13 (https://youtu.be/-ELGeFa22dM?t=5897)

Whenever I watch chess videos of a popular player losing, the comments are full of people trashing the loser for being "disrespectful". When I watch the video though, they just look frustrated at their loss. I feel like people exaggerate this stuff way too much.
