This comment breaks the site guidelines against calling names in arguments ("whataboutism"). Please don't do that.

Didn’t know, sorry about that.
Appreciated!
Is that actually name-calling? It's a description of a comment (or a argument), not of a person.

I mean, if it is, then so would calling out someone's comment as an ad-hominem, right.
