Excellent argument all around. I like that it stayed on point and didn't devolve into something else entirely. I know you and I don't necessarily agree, but I respect that you stood your ground and as a result, you as a person. I do feel that you could put more value into the demand-side of things, AKA, the consumer but there's a bit of nuance there and we probably have different approaches that solve the same ideal. My follow on points would have been to argue that YouTube isn't deserving of being given a social-contract of ethical conduct etc etc. I would also address that YouTube is central to some livelihoods and the financial well-being of others. I really wanted to highlight the sense of irony that I get that you would call a group of people crybabies and then feel personally attacked when someone took you to task and stood their ground on the counterpoint; however, I concede that if I had known you would have felt personally attacked I would have picked a softer tone and for that I apologize. I think we can both acknowledge that we'd only be arguing nuance at this point and that's not a worthwhile use of our time. You sir (edit: or ma'am, or something in between, if it pleases), are not an NPC.
