There was this analogy about programming language proponents.
Language A has features 1, 2, and 3. Language B has features 1, 2, and 4.
Language A user thinks they're superior because they have feature 3, which B lacks. B's feature 4 they don't understand, but they've never needed it so it's useless.
Language B user thinks the opposite, of course.
(this was much better explained in an article that graced HN a while back, and I can't find anymore)
