Calling out a mistaken assertion isn't a "taunt".

"taunt" in the sense that you dangle some knowledge in front of people and make them beg, not "taunt" in the sense of "insult".

You said:

>"[...] don't even get what the real argument is."

and then refuse to explain what the "real" argument is. someone then asks for clarification and you say:

"It's definitely not [...]""

okay, cool! you are still refusing to explain what the "real" argument is. but at least we know one thing it isnt, i guess.

you haven't even addressed the "mistaken assertion". you just say "nah" and refuse to elaborate. which is fine, i guess. but holy moly is it ever frustrating to read some of your comment chains. it often appears that your sole goal in commenting is to try and dunk on people -- at least that is how many of your comments come across to me.
