Evidently there are more points of view than yours. Evidently your
method of persuasion is also not working, because this thread is now
getting quite long and not converging on your point of view (which you
are holding to be absolutely objectively correct).

I think you need to re-evaluate the way in which you speak to people,
considering that it costs nothing to be polite and considerate, and
also takes effort to be rude and dismissive.

Cheers,
Daniel
