With all these I'm less interested in why someone thinks something X is better than Y as much as I am "Show me how that works for you?"
Nobody ever really says in detail exactly how their experience showed them that X is better than Y... but that's probably the most useful thing I want to know, and the most productive path discussion wise.
Granted asking them to go into detail would involve a great deal of work but that aside it is really hard to understand what anyone means when they make such blanket statements. Personally I really want to know those things as I want to learn about other people's experiences / how they reached those opinions, but I almost never see them.
Outside that it all seems to just be tribal garbage.
I'm inclined to agree. Without any evidence or context, these arguments rarely serve any purpose, and are most often driven by strongly-held opinions rather than objective analysis.
