Framing the discussion around tangential literalist flaws in subarguments is a tried and true tactic to ignore or obfuscate that broader argument that poisons the well just as much as pointing it out. I don't think you're doing it intentionally btw, it's just trendy rinow.
Frown, I must say, most times I go to quote your posts, I find more text than I just saw only seconds ago. No dig, I make edits all the time as well lol.

Fair enough - what part of my question do you take issue with as a tangential literalist flaw? The use of the word "active" to describe "effort"? I'd be more than willing to reframe the question without that.
