I don't really see posts like "well the cloud can make up the difference" that Kirby has been stating to be opinions which you can't really refute because there's no right or wrong. They're theories (more correct would be calling them hypotheses) on how something works, but how it actually works is a fact so you can be completely wrong. Arguing over different theories is what debating is all about. So when Andie-what's his face puts up a thread talking about another possible "secret sauce" for XBone this isn't an opinion, but a theory on how the XBone might work, and that can then be refuted by other people stating their reasons for why it's a poor theory.
I agree that posts simply saying "not this again" are in the wrong, but there's no reason for people to state their theories or the facts they present to try and refute someone else's theory as opinions because they really aren't. Now it would be nice if people were more humble about it and admit when something is outside of their realm as an expert, like if I'm commenting on DNA I don't speak with authority because I recognize I could be misremembering something. But this is a forum so I don't really expect that kind of candor.
