It's OK to point someone is being hyperbolic but you are nitpicking many posts on the topic, with 16 comments so far. Maybe just ease back the reply button a bit.

Can you give me an example of the nitpicking? Mostly I've been pointing out incorrect information or explaining my prior comment because someone misread the comment or didn't read how it relates to the context set by the parent.

I'm asking a legitimate question (like that you provide the data for your claim). Where is the nitpicking, or are you just trolling?

I don't agree. Most of the questions you are asking are narrowly pedantic, and you're essentially trying to judge your own case. At this point you have 51 comments out of 341, almost 15% of the thread and most of them trying to disqualify the opinions of others, often using rhetorical fallacies - whether you are aware of this or not.

You might find it helpful to re-read the HN guidelines about comments, and not approach every interaction with the strictness of an automatic parser. I will not be replying to further comments in this thread.
