>It's pretty clear that ddevault thinks that Gemini can replace a large fraction of the web (which is the issue under dispute).

Replacing a large fraction is EXTREMELY different than replacing the web which is how you originally phrased it.

"Large fraction" is also extremely vague. Unless they've stated a quantitative amount of the web which they think this can replace then this argument is pointless.

You're making quite the fallacy here - that if a quantitative amount is not given, then you can't make arguments about the statement. That's false.

ddevault (and other gemini enthusiasts) use this kind of qualitative marketing speak to portray Gemini as something that is comparable to the web, while avoiding making quantitative claims, and that is part of my grievance, as stated in my original comment.

You have quite the nerve pointing out other people's alleged fallacies, while you yourself are doing everything in your power to interpret the statements of the Gemini community in a very onesided way. IIRC, the etiquette of this very place says:

> Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

Since this whole discussion has left constructive territory a long time ago and arguably violates these guidelines already, I will refrain from replying to this part of the discussion.
