Huh? I'm pointing out that the phrase used by OP doesn't really make much sense. I'm not like a dank profunctor whiz or something but I think I know what co/contravariance are...
The OP's statement doesn't make sense to you.
That doesn't necessarily mean OP's point doesn't make sense or that OP doesn't know what he/she it talking about. It means you need more info before you can judge. (Also: I didn't mean to make any statement about your knowledge of type systems. I was referring to your understanding of what OP was attempting to communicate.)
OP's statement doesn't make much sense in context of the article under discussion. Perhaps it make sense in another context.

He's arguing that gp's opinion is, in fact, grounded in his opening question's exemplary ignorance.
Notice you started your response with a question. You need the right answer to that question before you can meaningfully continue.
