You seem to be confused about my beliefs again. You say my argument is based on the belief the system has to be in your hands, yet that runs counter to most of what I've said and argued. In the comment where i mention how i define a handheld, my following argument literally starts with "regardless", as my personal definition isn't relevant to what i say. In a comment before that, i present my argument under the explicit assumption that it's *not* being used as a traditionally hand held handheld. In several, I've also mention variables your assumed contradiction doesn't nullify.

My previous comment already addresses the second paragraph, but it's worth noting that your comment is the only one I've called odd. My only other conversation was with goodnightmoon, and his only assumption was a neutral one. He just doesn't understand some of the alternatives, which is fine. We all run into that sometimes.

The only variable the contradiction doesn't nullify is when the device is in your hands with the JCs connected whcih is tbh the only angle you've really argued from all other instances the is a contradiction especially looking at the comments about fitting in your pocket, personal view or not that's the stance you're arguing from so I'm responding to that stance as such. As it goes you haven't really disproved anything I've posted as I've noted he may need to clarify what he means other wise it can end up as a contradiction which is a very neutral view mean while you're just repeating some notion about not all variables which has been noted a while ago and still doesn't disprove my point which included showing that the two devices with out the JC are roughly the same size something you can now not deny with the earlier image.

Your previous comment doesn't address anything at all it's just a vague I find it odd comment with no reasoning as to why or explanation instead you kept refferring to some other argument you were having here and there and declaring something is neutral. You haven't even explained what your definition of a neutral assumption is here so as such I've read it as how it comes across and it comes across as you not liking people responding to the statement or having some problem with it when everything is pretty tame.

It's not just the handheld argument that can nullify your assumed contradiction though, all three of the variables I've previously brought up can. If he's using it as a tablet, he still has to carry it around (and for most titles he'll also need to bring a core controller to put the JCs into). As both a handheld or a tablet, he could simply prefer it to be smaller. As i previously mentioned, i prefer the iPad Air to the standard model, despite them both being equally comfortable in my hands. Do you consider that contradictory too?

So, given the above, for your assumed contradiction to makes sense you have to make an assumption about your assumption. It becomes "Yoko is talking about it as a [variable], specifically in the context of [variable] ". When choosing between that and the more linear alternative, yes, i find your choice odd. 

I don't see much room for interpretation in the aforementioned "previous comment", so there's not much more i can do to expand upon that for you sorry.
