I'd cede the point if the topic was abstract philosophy or my comment was intentionally vague, but neither of those are true.

What I said and what pcwalton argued against have nothing in common, except two out of 13 words: "any" and "them", which means pcwalton simply made up 84.62% of that statement. Why? It makes for a handy strawman so he can appear intellectually superior.
