Is there a better name for this "arguing past each other" or "arguing from a blind spot"
The use case for a single use plastic implement is very different from a reusable metal implement.
1. A plastic spoon is safe, sanitary, and very low cost. 2. Many can be industrially composted now, and have renewable sourcing.
Sentence one describes primary reasons why I would choose to use a plastic spoon. Sentence two has nothing to do with my use of the spoon.
To be clear, I have a strong dislike for single use plastic. Single use plastic is a scourge. I hate it when I see a plastic bag or bottle or implement in the park or a waterway. It's disgusting.
At the same time, plastic is a miracle. Most of the time, a reusable spoon makes more sense than a plastic spoon. But plastic spoons opens up food service options.
