I'm always interested in where things are going. I don't see the need for anyone to conceal this fact, at least in the form of a short summary, unless:
1- they don't know what the point is themselves
2- there is no point
3- it doesn't achieve the desired result and non-sequiturs are being implied
4- a dishonest agenda is afoot
I understand the idea of not confusing the current discussion, but a single line outlining the actual point of having the discussion in the first place is surely not too much to ask. Is it? If there is ever another genuine reason, I'd be interested to hear it.
I often find the irrelevant conclusion fallacy comes into effect in many discussions on this forum. That's why, like I've done here, I like to simply grant the whole claim for the sake of argument and see if it actually makes any difference to anything. You asked for a golden rocket launcher, here it is. Now what are you going to do with it? If you don't know, I sure as fuck don't.
