          I’m pointing out the metaphor is false and your argument might as well

            The metaphor is clear, and your correction has no bearing on my point whatsoever.

            Go be an annoying pedant somewhere else.

              Your metaphor is on the Wikipedia’s list of common misconceptions. No such luck for your argument.

                Absolutely doesn’t matter in relation to my point

                    No, you said the common turn of phrase I used is apocryphal.

                    You haven’t made any counterpoint that involved my actual point whatsoever.
