I think what you are doing is a logical fallacy known as an “appeal to authority”. In other words, because JR has expressed an opinion on the subject (that happens to agree with your position) and because he runs this forum, that should somehow be the end of the discussion. But just because Jim feels that way doesn’t mean everyone agrees, and doesn’t mean that those who disagree are going to stop expressing their opinions. And I don’t think Jim expects that they would - otherwise he would just ban everyone who disagrees with him, and Jim has never engaged in that.
