The qualifies in this case have some people arguing both sides of the
issue while claiming only one. I've stopped seriously arguing some time
ago, but if I nudge every once in a while the results can be amusing.

Tom I'm just reiterating what you and others have said, stripped of
all the hyperbole.
Peter, it's really easy to strip out what you call hyperbole (others,
such as myself, would call it qualifiers) and make a qualified
statement into an absolute statement, which can easily be proven wrong.
It's a common tactic (see any of JCO's posts over the past week), but
it is generally considered to be an invalid debating approach.
