I'd suggest that in future discussions you refrain from metaphors which use insulting connotations as it makes it difficult for the person to follow up without getting defensive. Perhaps try: 'you may not notice a difference, and I don't notice the difference between really good wine or mediocre wine, but there are people who can'.

I know this discussion is about a game, but lets not turn HN into a toxic gamer forum where we try to belittle each other and drop tech terms to gain cred.

There's a lot of bullshit in wine tasting. It's not total junk but double blind tests show experts assigning different flavor profiles to the same bottles/vintages and vice versa and non-experts coming to many of the same conclusions re: quality which mostly comes down to a lack of balance between acidity and sweetness. With DLSS vs FSR2, there is an objectively measurable difference in quality.

Apologies if you felt belittled. The "grandma doesn't notice motion smoothing" metaphor was used because of it being a shared experienced among the technologically savvy, though I get how it could be interpreted as insulting. Nothing wrong with being a grandma, they don't know any better.
