Congratulations on becoming a "high quality Swiss". What's that? I fear that I am only plain Swiss.
It was tongue in cheek, joking about the extremes the Swiss government goes to before giving out the citizenship. In this case, I had presented a certificate in March 2008 stating I had no legal problems in Chile, but they asked for another one, identical, in April 2009. That is why I wrote that I would become a "high quality Swiss"; I guess before that I would not have been high quality, according to the government's standards.

Sorry if I sounded presumptuous, I absolutely did not mean to. Best regards.
