Productive conversation is infeasible with someone who interprets my position to be that it’s selfish to be unable to have children.

Not to put words in their mouth, but I think part of the poster's point is that inability is is a more complex equation than simple biological capacity. A couple who judges it economically risky or otherwise irresponsible to start a family (which represents a wide swath of the population) could for example consider themselves unable.
