Agreeing on facts is always important, because if not, nothing else matters in a discussion. We should never criticize people for actually bringing real number

We should never criticize people for actually bringing real numbers into a conversation to clarify things. I didn't know that statistic, and I suspect many "disagreements" are things where if the actual numbers and facts were known to all, they would actually agree.
