You gave an extremely specific answer in numerical percentages. Where did you get those from?
I didn't give a specific numerical percentage like it came from some sort of hard data though, did I? All I said was I don't think they're that important. I didn't speak for anyone outside myself. I made it clear it was my subjective opinion and not some majority of players of the game.
You want me to put some specifics on my view when you previously stated a very specific appearing-objective number on a majority view like that and then tried to slide past being asked where it came from?
How about we resolve that important claim first before we move on. Because the answer hinges on whether we're having a legit conversation or not.
So, just to be clear here.
Me giving
my personal opinion, which is what was requested...
Me
explicitly saying that these were "abstract" and "analogic"...
All of that's irrelevant. I'm somehow inventing percentages about...what, exactly? I never said this was "the amount of people who care." I never said this was "a measure of public opinion on the matter." It's literally just my perception.
Funny how people make such strident claims about what is and isn't appropriate, what
absolutely positively definitely doesn't matter in the slightest degree, but hold everyone
else (well, everyone who disagrees with them) to a standard of peer-reviewed-scientific-journal rigor.
So, y'know what? No. I don't have peer-reviewed studies for the number I
invented on the spot as an explanation of my feelings. I can't give you inarguable scientific data somehow proving that my statement, "in whatever abstract, analogic sense these numbers apply," has such validity.
Because there isn't any and I never made any pretense otherwise.
