How much debate about this stuff still happens, outside of academics who need to publish or perish? From a quick check the only papers being published on this stuff are all variants of "if we add another variable <X> to some model we can conclude the difference in tax incidence is <Y>" where Y is some minor variant of pre-existing beliefs that may or may not hold in reality. Outside of that there are occasional flareups caused by old-guard left wing politicians or activists getting into fights about it with economists, and not much else.

A lot of the debate on this topic is tedious anyway because it revolves around semantic distinctions that only exist in specific kinds of ideological discourse.

Please don't cross into personal attack, regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are.

You're welcome to make your substantive points thoughtfully.
