To me, that sounds like you're asking (in your "answering my question with another question to avoid admitting what I'm trying to get you to admit" response) ... "why are you bothering to listen to and engage with this person who seems to have no interest in listening to or engaging with anyone else?"
And I'd answer that with: "because you're smart and I often respect what you write, so I genuinely believe you are capable of better."
We can all be bad at listening sometimes, and this forum truly amplifies it, which is why I have to fight just to have one thread out of eight trillion where people actually listen to each other instead of talking at/past each other.
