Peanut gallery comments really don't add anything to the conversation. Unless this isn't sarcasm and your point is that being technically correct is practically worthless.

My point was that when commenting correctness by technicalities people often leave themselves open to dismissal in favour of more emotive arguments.

A "How dare you be technically correct!" variation is both an expression of mob-correctness trumping technical correctness _and_ an acknowledgement of being technically correct.

A sort of, you're right, I support you, but the crowd might not.

Read shit how you like tho
