Its good to look at things from differnt angles. Vaishnavites are ultimately Bhagavatins--so they adhere to the View of God Consciousness ("GC")--consequently they will have issue with Badarayana, aka the Brahma sutras. Shankara blasts them for several fallacies in his comment, but also acknowledges what is correct about the GC View. In that way Shankara's exposition of GC is considered the definitive one (certainly from a Shankaracharya Order POV). Vaisnav's trying to argue from a lower View like "GC" is not only a logical contradiction, but a losing proposition from ultimate reality. Kinda funny to hear.
