Look, your argument is ridiculous; it's frankly the silliest interpretation of a non-policy that I've heard in all my years at WP, and that's saying a lot because I usually edit at controversial articles.  You've 'got to have thick enough skin to abandon an obvious loser of an argument and move on.  You had plenty of openings to do so; I even specifically pleaded with you to pivot to a policy argument that made sense.
