Even if they didn't make a fair point (and I think they do), I would prefer their pedantry to your palpable contempt by a large margin. I mean "palpable" literally. My body is tenser and my heart more sad having experienced the voice you just used on that person.

Thank you, I take great pride and effort in compressing as much emotional weight into as short a statement as possible.

I miss when people used to hide emotional fragility, and not publicly brag about being physically and emotionally devastated by an HN comment.
