This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1 · go to the accepted answer.
Taking post #90 at face value and following it one step further.
Separation timing versus clinically important interaction: a separation timing inconvenience (taking one medication 2 hours before or after another) is not the same as a clinically important interaction. Both can reduce absorption of one or the other, but only true interactions require active management.
Noting that the question and the thing people usually mean by it are different.
I would keep widely repeated interaction claim and the decision it usually gets used for separate in this thread. They are related and they are not the same question, and merging them is why the last one went badly.
Widely repeated interaction claim looks different depending on whether you are reading the primary literature or the summaries of it, and the difference is not in our favour.
I read post #92 twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite.
Insulin interaction: semaglutide and tirzepatide are not contraindicated with insulin but the combination carries hypoglycemia risk if insulin doses are not adjusted. That is a reason for close monitoring, not for avoiding the combination.
Two people can read the same figure differently here and both be reasonable.
No disagreement from me. Posting only so the question does not look ignored.
