To be fair, you basically said "they're called different things" to which he replied "they work the same as spells, so they seem the same as spells." Of course it's going to come down to how an individual feels, but by no means is it unsupported.'To you,' OK. So, I list factual differences that set exploits and spells apart, and your counter is an unsupported personal opinion? Fine. You've made up your mind on that point, and are not open to alternatives.
I also think it's pretty obvious that both of your minds are made up on it. And rightly so, by this point. It's a subjective view, and both are pretty valid, in my mind. As always, play what you like
