I feel like the grandparent post demonstrates a flaw in the method of quoting passages you disagree with: you can just as easily claim the absence of information in the initial post and set it up as a strawman.
- toolz 11y agoOf course, my grandparent comment demonstrates how much easier it is to correct someone claiming a lack of addressing the point, rather than the tedious nature of getting into trying to match someones rebuttal to a claim that may have only been partially made. Also, I don't think the claim that quoting the points your addressing solves all the problems in organizing a debate, just some of them.
