No, they're *exactly* what you said. Not an interpretation.

Before you were not arguing about live CDs, and I didn't mention live
CDs. The point I brought up was that you (both) said you could only
install from a DVD. You're trying to skirt the issue again. What do
you not understand about the words "only" and "not available"?
Karl: "Be advised that F7 is only available in a DVD 7image."
Kam: "What Karl stated is factual. A multiple CD-ROM disc equivalent of
the F7 DVD is not offered or available."
Karl proclaimed you can only install from a DVD, you backed him up.
There is no other interpretation of those words. If you meant something
else, you certainly didn't say it.
If you bothered looking in the obvious place [1], never mind using
Google, you'd find at least one way to get install CDs that you don't
have to roll your own [2]. The subject has been brought up on this list
quite a few times, before. If you look further, yourself, you'll most
likely find others, too.

Heading off the next daft diversion: The official DVD isn't the same as
what's available in the repos, it's only a small subset. A CD version
doesn't have to be an exact equivelent of the DVD install ISO for you to
install Fedora 7.
