You said:

"If any SVN dev truly believes that svn is better than git in any technical sense then I wouldn't trust the engineering judgment of that developer."

and I gave one example in which svn 'is better than git in a technical sense'.

Poor choice of words on my part, but when I said "in a technical sense", I meant it's data model and architecture. Bindings are just a feature that can be written at any time, data model and architecture are something that can never be fixed.

More importantly, I specifically alluded to use cases that svn is better than git for. In no way did I ever "argue that there is no single use case which wouldn't be affected by this".
