presumably your issue was with the first premise and not the conclusion.

[RandComment]

That is not presumed. Reappropriating how value and effort are measured is just raising strawmen, as I intimated.

[abiox]

then your post was purely non-sequitur, as the syllogism's conclusion holds. there was no strawman.

[RandComment]

> purely non-sequitur

That's projection. No definition was offered and the existing was discounted. Still a strawman. Good luck with whatever.
