Thanks for the input though. I feel like that we each have a responsibility to call out unreasonable comments when we see it. I hope you all do this when it counts and not just when it's easy.
The phrase "call out" is a bit of a red flag on HN because it's associated with flamewar, aggression, and online drama culture. You can make a substantive, thoughtful point showing how someone else is wrong without resorting to "calling out" or shaming.
