Well, you were mistaken. I said that we should be wary of baseless arguments. It's too easy to misdirect people with an argumetn that has no fact behind it. Also, while theories are supported by facts, they are not, in themselves, fact, and someone who seems eager to have us adhere to one theory as fact is directly misleading us. You said this:

I didn't say "don't throw around" anything. I said becareful of those who do. Theories are all well and good- baseless arguments aren't. It greatly concerns me that you would hold those up.

If you are here saying I am one of those two people you'll find you are greatly wrong. I never said, nor will I ever say that analysis is boring and pointless. I said for me I don't use "summaries" because I don't see why we hsould it's all right there. I'm perfectly fine with people using summaries, if that helps them sort out everything, but me personally I don't use them and I don't see a point in them.

Saying that you don't see a point in something and saying that something is pointless is the same thing. Way to contradict yourself again.

It means that you're trying to look like you're giving a well thought out analysis, when you are- in short, misleading the village. I also note that you didn't outright deny it.
