This garbage is so irritating. It's the ultimate "you can't explain therefore" The goalposts on this one come with wheels equipped as a standard feature. It only exists to provide endless opportunities to argue about anything other than what the user is hoping to establish.
If the apple/orange analogy works for you, I can see why you're frustrated.
That you believe that there are obtainable goalposts, shows what your belief is. In the absence of proof otherwise, just believe the goalpost is millimetres away.
If you can define what you're hoping to establish that would be a start.
