It was the point drcode was making (which FuzzyDunlop misunderstood):

Excuse my pedantry, but I'd advise against saying "That isn't the point.", for it conflicts with a well known writing technique: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Show,_don%27t_tell

If you insist on doing so, consider a more polite alternative. E.g. "it's seems you've missed the point", "perhaps you've misunderstood", "I feel that so-and-so was saying something else".
