SA, and Arlo, Horse, It's not a matter of not-liking Platt or "saving us" from his bogus arguments - "we" can all look after ourselves in an argument. And I do appreciate the contradiction of "attacking" Platt whilst calling for cooperative progress ... and yes we know he is intentionally the "master-baiter" .... etc .. etc ... I do go for long periods simply ignoring him. Anyway ...
If we want MoQ to progress, (and that's a significant if, I appreciate) we have to attract and egnage new participants. As Arlo points out the problem with Platt's contributions, apart from being crap (but hey it's a free forum) is that they skew the weight of discussion into adversarial dogmas and party-political prejudices - long before we get to a point where Arlo (or I or anyone else) decides to take Platt's dishonesty on directly. It drives people away from wothwhile debate and discussion. (As for whether the natural evolution of MoQ is embodied in these interactions on MoQDiscuss - we could usefully debate, but you know my view is that evolution is not all adversarial .... for another time.)
