I find it rather hilarious that you're trying to warn me against discourse in the vein of "I assume you're ignorant, so let me enlighten you' while literally doing it yourself. You can try to pretend you're not in #3, but you literally just spent like 8 paragraphs trying to do so. Incorrectly, at that, but since you clearly think you're so much smarter than all the ignorant "muppets" (as you put it) out there who you're dismissing as band-wagoners without doing any of your beloved deductive reasoning on the proof they've been providing I doubt you'll actually consider it for a moment.

Even funnier is the fact that you're trying to drag out all these debates about the exact definitions and semantics when in the end this only came up because of your own strawman in the first place- that being your own assumption that an appeal to authority was even happening in the first place, when I specifically noted that one should examine what the experts are saying instead of just dismissing them as band-wagoners.
