How people look is a pretty poor indicator of their performance. If the people being referenced actually lack maturity, then provide statements to support that.

When people don't have any actual evidence to support their claims, they use bullshit phrases designed to push emotion over facts.
- coldtea 11y agoWell, "just out of high school" can mean that he looked young face/dress/etc-wise. It can also mean that he looked AND acted inexperienced, immature, bro-ish, etc.

Often I'll use emotions over facts even when I have facts. My own experience has been that discussing with other humans goes easier when you include emotional arguments. While a mix of both works best, if you have to give a very simplified argument and cannot include both factual and emotional argument, the emotional argument will tend to go better. I fully agree with your claim that those without factual argument will use emotional argument, but the use of an emotional argument does not guarantee they are lacking a factual argument. For example, if I describe someone as an intern due to their lack of maturity, I may have numerous stories to tell about their lack of maturity, but as I only have one line to describe them in, I stick with describing them as an intern.
- coldtea 11y agoYes. Besides "he looked just out of high school" can be corroborative evidence, as it's something that can statistically explain their immature behavior/inexperience etc. In other words, it's not like everybody who is "just out of high school" is immature/inexperienced etc, but if we want to predict or explain such behavior, it's a statistically very good tool.
