A restatement from you is answered by a restatement from me:

I’m starting to notice a tactic, perhaps a logical tactic, in which freepers nitpick and try to wear down the other freeper with whom they disagree. I think it is a form of antagonism, a pretty crafty one at that. Basically, if someone who disagrees with me really does want to common terms, I’m all for it. But when the discussion drones on and on, with all kinds of other issues getting dragged in, it’s a sign for me that the person doesn’t really want to reach compromise.

If it’s just about having a tag then either one should be acceptable and the one that’s more likely to produce consensus preferable.

***Fair enough. What do you think of the Scienschism hybrid? The cool thing about using invented words is you get to invent the definition as well. If we find a definition that we both support, then we could apply it to such a term.

It was "fair enough" then. What changed?
