Allow me to have my doubts. People like that don't drop hints how they would really destroy the opponent's positions if only the limits of politeness did not hold them back...

Once again you miss the point. I don't think my arguments would gain any extra force if I was personally rude about you, or resorted to the type of deliberate misreadings you engage in. Everyone can see what your position is like, and we can all draw our own conclusions.

The way we all conduct ourselves leads others to conclude things, not merely about the weight of our arguments, but the content of our characters. That's all.
