Yeah. I don't think it should be banned, but what you're referring to is a common example of the tendency of people, especially engineers, toward binary thought

Yeah. I don't think it should be banned, but what you're referring to is a common example of the tendency of people, especially engineers, toward binary thought. You see the same thing with AirTag concerns - people say, "there have always been small GPS trackers available", without elaborating. By itself, it's such a weak argument. Ironically, the more "human" a variable is, the more humans tend to ignore it when asserting, "X is no different than Y."
