I am pointing out (what I think is) a logical fallacy you made earlier.
This what your parent said:
> The worst about the SpaceX IPO is Nasdaq changing their inclusion rules for the Nasdaq 100.
And you replied with:
> It would be shocking if we were talking about the SP500.
My critique is that this is not a valid refutation of your parent’s original claim.
If you don‘t think this is constructive, then that is on you. In my mind you have not refuted your parent’s original claim, and I have explained why above.
Also let me repeat, since you seem to have missed it when I said it above: I am not comparing anything to earthquake. I am making an obviously ridiculous hypothetical claim I just picked earthquakes because it was more obvious. I could have as well made the hypothetical claim about the worst thing about coffee is that it is only lukewarm, and then the refutation saying: “no actually, it could have been room temperature, so lukewarm is not that bad.“
