(Regretted word jockish edited , even if warranted)
We really don't need any flame wars.
And I disagree with more than just "jockish"; I quoted it because I thought it was the salient part of your comment. You're making a comment about the poster rather than his arguments. And that bothers me.
I'm making arguments about substantive matters that impact on the reception of the OP's argument. I say nothing about their character, and concentrate on their arguments. Method matters. But right now I'm more interested in headway on the original topic. Let's do that and go there instead?
I'm cherrypicking? Whiteknighting? Policing? Come on now. I'm replying to your comments in a level-headed fashion, and that's what you have to say to me? Talk about "method."
You even restated that you think "jockish" was warranted after editing that comment.
(This is my last reply.)
Either the study considers maturation or it doesn't.
