The moderation point here is in no way "defending that", nor was this the issue with your comments. The issue is that when people get into the frame of "calling out", they're already usually over the line into flamewar. That has nothing to do with this particular topic, as the second link in my reply makes clear (as the topic of that previous flamewar was unrelated).

If you want to provide thoughtful critique, answering bad information with better information and bad arguments with better arguments, in a respectful and curious way, that's of course fine. If you call names, or take swipes, or post flamebait or high-dudgeon rhetoric, that's going to lead to getting moderated and/or penalized and/or eventually banned, regardless of the topic.

Thanks for clarifying, duly noted.
