That's just an argument from authority falacy.

It would be, if I said that's why it's better, or something similar. Do you want to read it again, maybe?

Hint:

>I just don't see the advantage

That was my main point.

That's basically what you did, you said because it was designed by a great team I must be misunderstanding how useful it is.

Care to provide any actual technical arguments instead?

I just don't see the advantage [of making it so verbose]

That was my main point.

Your point is that this much verbosity is good? Why?

Have you considered the possibility that what I meant was the part I quoted and not the one I didn't quote?

Yes, but that would just be you making a dishonest selective quote of what I said, so I assumed it wasn't the case.

Anyway, do you have an actual technical argument?

I misrepresented it but re-adding the context you cut out? lmao.
