I agree completely. My own position on the historicity of the character isn't exactly kept a secret - I'm a moderator over at the JesusNeverExisted forum, that ought to be a clue - but whatever your opinions on the issue, the fact that someone has to hide behind an hastily-constructed wall of names and thinks that somehow imparts legitimacy to their argument by some kind of osmosis is incredibly revealing. It's almost as though they either have no confidence that their argument could stand on its own merit, or even that they have no argument at all. I'm far too polite to say which.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
