Yeah, I was just more commenting on their use of the “hill to die on” thing than the quality or value of their argument. Like there wasn’t anything I was doing to indicate it was a hill I was willing to die on, certainly not any more than they were.

That said, it wasn’t just downvoting, several other people also jumped in to argue with them, and honestly they just seemed to be acting antagonistic for no reason.

And while downvotes aren’t always an indicator of a weak argument, they certainly can be.
