I honestly think this person has been engaged with enough, at least until they make the kind of concrete claims you’ve been asking for. I think it’s commendable to have responded with the good mix of “look at their plausibly good points while calling them out on their bad points”, but at some point it becomes uncommendable to engage with people who are clearly not arguing in good faith.

Yeah, I’m done replying at this point. +1 for the outside view check, though—if I weren’t already done, I would’ve appreciated your intervention.
