Is there a name given to your type of argument? The idea is to simply reply with an an absurd extreme counter example. People use it all the time. Perhaps it's some sort of extrapolation argument?
Reductio Ad Absurdum (e.g. "for Microsoft to support anyone but themselves they thus must support every fringe platform, including those popular twenty years ago"). It's a particularly boring tactic of response and never adds anything to the conversation.
