What you say is true, but it’s also true that the person you are replying specifically made their remarks about productivity - you’re both talking about what is best at work.

It seems reasonable to argue that statements that you won’t even discuss X any more and would rather judge the person as less competent professionally are unproductive. Not saying I agree, btw. But it does seem like a pretty basic point. One of you is talking about preserving your sanity and the other about output. It’s not necessarily a disagreement even.

> any more and would rather judge the person as less competent professionally

That is absolutely NOT what the other poster said. They said they _MAY_ judge them that way.

Fair point, you're right!

I still think it's reasonable to argue that's not a "productive" approach, but like I said, that's not my own opinion, I just think it's a reasonable argument.
