No, I don't see it. Do you agree with me that somebody who says "Fuck off with those p-values, go to Alternativa with them!" both has a mistaken picture of how modern science works and is being a jerk? If not, have you watched the Veritasium's video about why most published research is wrong (explaining how modern science revolves around p-values and what are the upsides and downsides of that)?
What's the context? I feel like there was a lot of things going on in the exchange between you and them that eventually led to this kind of response.
