Again, my goal is not to convince you or anyone else.

My goal is to test the speculated scenario. I advocate for it not because I want to convince others, but because it doesn't get much mileage on its own.

As it gets picked apart, I learn more about the the scenario itself, about the material it's built on, and about the speculative process.

Respectfully, it is silly to assume that no one's position is changing.
