Really not interested in a back and forth over who understands what. I was responding to a flood of dismissals I’ve seen that couldn’t possibly have been less “chauvinistic,” and the assertion that not immediately building a bigger collider is “giving up on basic science.”
It’s a difficult and subtle philosophical (and political)line to walk to decide which physical theories are “ready to be experimentally tested”, as opposed to other ones.. in this vein I think @skdh makes an important point

Yea I’m not that smart because to me it’s a very simple issue concerning how linear colliders scale and whether or not it’s tunnel vision to believe the only way forward is to build a collider with the same basic technology as the LHC but that’s bigger by a factor of two
