A lot of "philosophical" questions boil down to semantic debates, see the sleeping beauty problem for another one [1]. So we can get into a philosophical (or semantic?) debate about that, for a funny instance of recursion :-)

But I agree with that those debates are quite uninteresting, so let's not do that.

A 'fact' that is relative to the frame of reference of the observer.

Nah, there’s nothing less interesting and more irritating than bikeshedding if that sort. Nobody cares about some blowhard’s attempt to generate pointless “debate” over hypotheticals and semantics.

When you say "there’s nothing less interesting and more irritating than", are you speaking universally, or of your own personal experience?

How do you people have knowledge of each others thoughts? Serious question.
