(Simplified) You said: I think the best thing is X (vs Y). He said: I disagree that this is an either-or proposition. You said: Um, "best" neccesarily implies a "one or the other" proposition He was never confused about the meaning of "best", he just disagreed that it applied. You missed his point by a country mile, and got downvoted accordingly.
