Reading what you have said in this thread, I was confident that you were committing the fallacy of rationalization. Your statement is simple, and it seems like reality can be made to fit it, so you do so. But your name looked familiar, and so I clicked on it, and found that your karma is higher than mine, which seems to be strong evidence that you would not commit such a fallacy, using phrases so revealing as “I want to build a case for . . .”.
Your words say you are rationalizing; your karma says you are not. I am confused.
The OP asked for a specific thing to be done with arguments on both sides. “Please place garbage in the bin in the corner” doesn’t mean I want the bin to contain more garbage.
Or maybe you’re not referring to “Please post arguments and . . .”

Argument screens off karma. ;)
I agree with you about “I want to build a case”, the phrasing is unfortunate. However I note that the OP asked for arguments on both “sides”.
