I think saying it's the wrong question is a fair argumentative point. Not sure why you're being the debate police.

Because if I raise an issue, I'd like to discuss that rather than have people tell me it's the wrong question. Just don't engage then.

Getting close to saying that if I think that someone misunderstands an issue I shouldn't be able to say so.

Nowhere near that. They raised the issue abt logical structure. You told them they shouldn't look at it that way.

But only at the fact that language works functionally. They'd conceded that. Interesting to look at its workings on a logical level.

Particularly if you're a mathemetician. Not interesting for everyone but it's so easy to go & have a convo you're interested in.

Rather than tell other people to stop having the ones that interest them & look at it your way instead.

I think if people are determined to look at something unscientifically it is worth pointing it out. I'm not banning their opinions though.

That's not what happened. Ppl were trying to look at logical structure & you kept telling them only functionality matters.

My point is that they're imposing a logic from another discipline onto language. There are several logics, if it's not pomo to say so.

Yes, because its interesting. You don't have to find it so. No, there aren't several logics. Logic can just work on different aspects.
