Reply point by point:

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.

Can you read? If yes, read my previous comment.

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

It’s really no different

Was the initial claim

By that logic, its equal to a phone is an equal strawman. It is a way less vital device than a phone.

It is quite different, phones are useful devices that people rely on, this is not. More akin to breaking some useless annoying gadget like a toy siren or something

I’ve survived 11 years of programming without ternary operators and prefer to keep it that way

Yeah I’d rather not have allergy-denying magical thinkers poisoning me with peanuts
