Doesn't the argument assume that Axii can't be resisted?
in game.
Geralt can even use Axii on himself (which was in Tower of the Swallow).
Muddling Vesemir's mind is canon. It's literally in the tutorial.
Non-serious, but Geralt can't reduce the power of his Sign and you could see Vesemir visibly fighting off Axii as it hit him. It was only sparring session but I really don't think Vesemir was feeling endangered by Geralt using Axii on him so he probably just tried to resist it because he doesn't like the effects it takes on his head. Witchers have enhanced mind and greater strength of will/balls than average people, not to mention a Witcher that was living for around 400 years.However, context can help us interpret the scene in a way that makes both ideas (Axii had an effect on Vesemir, and Axii is ineffective against characters with strong wills) compatible. This was a non-serious sparring session between Vesemir and Geralt - not a life-or-death altercation; and it could be said that he would have reacted to the use of Axii a lot differently if someone tried it on him while he was in his last fight against the Wild Hunt. There wouldn't be much of a point in letting Geralt train with his signs if one of them was rendered completely ineffective by Vesemir's strength of will. So I feel like there's an argument here that Vesemir let Geralt muddle his mind, or at least that he wasn't in a state of mind during the fight that would make him more liable to resist Axii (he fully trusts Geralt, and there's nothing at stake in the fight).
Not to mention that even if we disregard the above, it's still a bit much to say that objective explanations of Axii are incorrect because of a single instance in a tutorial fight - that could be an exception to the rule rather than a trend that says the rule doesn't exist.

Witchers do resist full Axii mind control, but they are not resisting the quick stun version that "muddle your mind"
You could also make an argument that "Axii doesn't work on average folk because you need to improve it in Witcher 3 for it to actually work on them", but I think that's all just a game mechanic, same with the will thing. My opinion is that it's simply just made for gameplay so you couldn't Axii everyone you meet.
