          Yeah, sure, you just claimed that I strawmanned their argument… Cmon.

          EDIT: Also, who’s doing the strawmanning here? I said that “phones are useful devices that people rely on, while [smart glasses] are not”. Then, you went on a tirade how I said that smart glasses are “marginally convenient” instead of “literally useless”.

          Did I say that they are literally useless? Or rather, implied that they are something along the lines of “marginally convenient”, thus not being “useful devices that people rely on”?

          Also, I did not say anything about equivalence. I said “more akin to”. Which you took as literal equivalence.

          This is the wildest pedantry I’ve witnessed in a while.
