I've learned from personal experience that starting a reply with "You're wrong" is an anti-pattern most of the time. Instead, framing additional context/knowledge constructively can enrich conversation rather than shutting it down (and making things unnecessarily combative). But to your point: We're both saying the same thing, I'm just being reductive on purpose.
