In that thread, Little Nemo says:
Which strikes me as a pretty sensible rebuttal.
I guess what I’m saying by repeating it here is that I don’t see “moronic.” I see an argument that is susceptible to refutation being refuted. If all arguments that were susceptible to refutation were Pitted as moronic or claimed to be the result of a moron’s approach, I believe the Reader would need to invest in a dedicated server farm just for the Pit.
So while I agree with your implied criticism of the merits of the argument, I don’t quite agree it’s Pit-worthy.
