Presenting arguments isn’t bad if it’s about something important, but I think by “Hey, I’ve argued about shit all my life!” the GP takes issue more with the “shit” than the arguing.


It's explicitly stated in their comment:

There could be a lot of valid and important arguments around these things. Except maybe vim and emacs, who gives a shit about that.
