I imagine the reason it's downvoted is not because the point isn't valid, but because of the tone.

From the HN guidelines:

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

> Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.

We're not obliged to accommodate bullshit. The above only works when everyone is participating in good faith.

By the way, remarking about whether a comment should or should not be downvoted is also against HN guidelines:

> Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.

Yes, I'm fully aware of that.
