As someone who doesn't have deep background knowledge of the issue i brought up, i ask you: Please refrain yourself from tone-policing. If he is correct, then that is a valuable and interesting point to bring, and i would prefer to learn about it regardless of the words it is stated in. If he is incorrect, i would rather learn what the actual facts are. Downvoting him because he did not speak in a way you like is not conducive to learning in either way.
