I... what?
Alright, yeah, @Bambu, that's all I wanted to understand- it was not obvious to me at all that the prior discussion had established anything of the sort- but being asked to be taken seriously is directed specifically towards those for whom the initial response was "because it's wrong lol", and don't think that further elaboration is necessary.
If we can have a discussion that moves away from that, the rest is fine. But... if wanting that is "childish?" "Unreasonable?"
...
At any rate, that I haven't been able to change my own mind on the matter isn't the same as claiming that anyone else has no right to think differently, and clearly I am outvoted by at least those here that have participated the most, recently (Hell, my original proposition really wasn't all that different from what we've established now, it would seem, at least sans the Jan. 2015 comic.) I just would be more comfortable moving on if I understood the principles upon which doing so operated; I believe in principles more so than simply popular vote.
