I apologize if I read more into your post than you meant to convey, but you seemed to be hopping mad.

Your inability to even admit that the argument could have been made better, and insistence that I accept it as perfect, lead me to think further discourse on this trivial disagreement would be fruitless. Thanks for validating my initial impression with your OP, anyways.

I am a little disappointed that I didn't get a wall of copy and paste with links in response, though. Am I not worthy?
