try to get it all right.
Your post took - out of the context of the article - a point that the writer himself said was "a cheap point", and I say is a strawman.
But you made that the central point of your post on here.

So if either of us is not doing the article justice (dismissing it) - and is making a bigger, even cheaper point than the writer of the article was making - it is you, surely?
And a point you have failed to back up with any facts.
