Probably, you are in soldier mindset yourself about this very issue. You have an idea of how debate should work and then have a motivation to have the details fit neatly and be able to be resolved just by specifying it better.
I think the disagreement stems from a lack of specificity on my part; ignore the specific description of the categories.

I hold beliefs on it, sure. I am now interested in seeing if they reflect reality, and learning why/why not. Is this mindset inadequate, and what would make it more rational?
