I don't think you read my comment in full. I said nothing about how effective his analogy was, just that it was obviously misinformed, to a laughable degree.
Of course I read it in full. You write a lot about how his comments on violins are wrong (which I say is irrelevant) and then say "I wish people wouldn't use analogies about things they don't understand" (which I say is also irrelevant, because it's effective).
You then misrepresent what he doesn't like, which I ignored because one can only pick on so many annoyances in one post, then you suggest he was criticizing violins (which he wasn't) in an effort to strengthen his argument (which he wasn't, and he isn't arguing anyway he's describing his viewpoint).
I'm going to go with my original comment before I changed it for something more polite.
Your comments are like the Go language: weakly typed and useless.
Hey, you're right, being intellectually lazy is effective!
It doesn't matter at all how accurate his criticism of a violin is, any more than it matters that C has nothing analagous to 'tuning pegs'.
Your wish that people wouldn't communicate in a way in a way that is effective but you don't like, is therefore silly.
