You think you get to just declare the opinion that differs from yours invalid by calling it religious?

Don't the holders of that opinion get to call your position equally religious?

"not a disagreement based on technical or even practical merits" indeed, right there in the mirror.

The first few minutes of this video absolutely articulated some perfectly technical and practical merits. So have some comments here on this hn post. I don't see how it's valid to say no one has ever produced any.
