The long and short of it, is simple...your argument is a gap argument about empirical investigation. The difference between metaphysics and physics is..very simply, empiricism.
It's okay if you didn't know that, like you didn't know that you weren't talking about cosmogony (or, conversely, that you didn't know that you -were- talking cosmogony but were talking directly out of your ass).
The claim that empirical investigation os not the proper tool for some subject is an explicitly metaphysical claim. The claim that there are "clearly metaphysical" questions is a metaphysical claim. It's not like you typed this shit twenty years ago and just can;t remember it. Could I quote you..yes..ofc...wtf?
I shouldn't have to. You should remember and have some basic understanding of the things that you've said in the last 24 hours. Is that too much to ask?
