It's not dishonest, it's representative of the actual situation. You don't even have to look very far: there are people IN THIS ACTUAL THREAD who admit they haven't thought about it and don't need to.

I wasn't saying "literally no one has tried to think this through", I was saying "a random guy off the street has not thought this through."

If you claim "they" don't even "think that far", while there are plenty of examples of "them" thinking further, then there's nothing representative at all about your statement. Copyright reform was, and still is, the platform the pirate party is running for all over the world.

The random guy off the street also does not think about solving energy problems for the world, as such random guy off the street can be hardly a measure for anything at all.
