Bear in mind, if I remember my educational theory correctly, the ability to
think abstractly is only acquired at the age of about 14.
And it is now thought that probably a full half, if not more, of the population
never acquire that ability.
So if Mr Quinn is average, there is a good chance he was simply incapable of
comprehending the argument.

Or got frustrated because we weren't buying what he was trying to
sell!

I fully understood he (and others like him) came here to hone the edge of
their arguments.
However - I also knew we would end up honing ours at the
same time.
The strength of his arguments lies in complexity - confusing
the issue at hand with sufficient complexity one doesn't know what one is
listening to.
The strength of our arguments lies in simplicity - and when
people clearly see and understand:
They don't much like it when they think
they're involved in a game of three-card Monty!
Yup - they honed their
arguments - but we got better too. And it appears the Supremes are
understanding our reasoning more readily.
