I just hoped there might be some sort of, well, reply to this sort of fake bullet-biting. I happen to know someone who uses it as a fully general counterargument—and they’re pretty good ad redefining their claims so that any contradictions magically disappear when challenged. It’s not unbeatable, but it is exhausting to have to pin them down on a contradiction with what they actually do—and then they can always shrug and say “well, I never said I cared about being well-integrated” and make my head explode.
Indeed :(
