(Stylistic) point taken.

I stand by what I wrote, although it could be argued in less stringent terms.

Persuasive writing is a skill. You lost my attention and I turned against your argument because of your "stylistic point". If it'd been written differently, I would have definitely agreed and supported the points I did read.

Why pride yourself on being unreasonable? The text was clear enough and the exact phrasing is immaterial.
