I don’t think you’re using the term ‘apex’ correctly.

Why the hell are you trying to argue now that I am arguing anything differently?
I agree, we are the only species with the capability to wreck this planet, and we are the only species with the capability to save it from ourselves.

I think it's a difference over what the phrase 'most important species' means.
