If you’re really that interested in my opinion about this, you can see some posts in a prior thread, starting around here.

You mean the thread in which someone posted the following?

IMO, someone who wants to refer to previous threads as a shorthand is fine, if they actually link to the specific part of the a prior thread which addresses the specific point under discussion. What isn’t nearly as fine is what’s happening here, in which people - led by you, IIRC - have simply linked to a dozen or so prior threads (some or all of which are likely long and discuss many aspects of the issue) and said “hey read through all this stuff and you’ll see that you’re wrong”.

I mean, you can use the prior threads as an excuse for not bothering to debate the issue in this one. But I don’t think you can make a big deal or harp on someone else for his or her refusal to read a voluminous amount of material just because you claim that somewhere in that vast literature they will find the refutation to their argument.

If your answer stands, fine. I’m sorry you found the question to be so deeply flawed as to preclude a straightforward answer. And unfortunately (for me), I’m no closer to understanding where you’re coming from than before. So it goes.
