    Incredible, you have bested me at my own game. The link you provided is relevant and interesting, the information is concise and factual, and you used metric instead of imperial (the more intellectual measurement system)

    Thank you for freeing me from my role as professional Internet debater.

    I’m freeeee^eee^

      I think you’re giving a bit too much credit here. The link may have been relevant, but that doesn’t automatically make the argument complete or correct—concise information can still omit important context or nuance.

      Also, calling metric the “more intellectual” system is more of a preference than an objective truth. Both systems have their uses depending on context, and framing one as inherently superior doesn’t really strengthen the discussion.

      And as for being “free,” stepping away from one debate doesn’t really mean you’ve escaped the role—you’re still engaging, just from a different angle. That pull to argue and evaluate doesn’t disappear that easily.

        Got any sources there bud, or you just trying to speak facts into existence? I think Kant would like to have a word about your philosophy of “freedom”. I won’t go into anymore detail though…
