Do you have any actual arguments or are you just trying to sow FUD? Cause you sound exactly like a concern troll. Not providing any substantial arguments against Piketty, just vaguely suggesting that there are problems with his argument, then changing the subject to what’s nitpicky or not..

Give us a concrete argument, and we can discuss if it’s nitpicky or not. What you are doing is leading people into the weeds, which only helps the people making a profit of the positive feedback loop you do not seem to want to discuss. I don’t think that’s your intention, but it is the result..

Aren’t we discussing an article which actually lays out these arguments, and references the papers with more detail? At least, I thought that’s what we were doing. Under those circumstances it seems odd to complain about a lack of such arguments having been presented.
