I was doing exactly that when he agreed with me and now that's ruined - but of course it's worth it, if anyone at all will consider taking my advice and follow my example in the future.
You intimating that he had a sound argument but just suffered from a lack of sympathy is misplaced. He has been given a very simple definition of theist and example, yet continues with the unsupported assertion that there are no theists. He understands the language well enough as he has no problem using it to obfuscate, he just won't admit his error since it destroys his argument.
Do you know pool? Treating him as a damsel in distress given the inanity of his argument seems misplaced.
