I could respond point by point, but the tone you’re bringing isn’t about understanding, it’s about winning.

I don’t do debates where anger replaces reasoning.

Neither you nor anyone else "does debate" ever. This isn't high school. There are no rules of order and there aren't going to be. Obnoxious pedants like yourself reframe arguments you get in as debates so that when you lose you can gesture at some moderator that isn't there or rulebook only you respect to indicate that the time for argument has passed
