To me, now, you sound like that saying that it's an indirect competition is just offensive needs justification while saying that it's on direct competition is ok because it praises Nintendo and so doesn't need justification. It's very hard for me to see how we draw the line between market/business opinion and "attack to Nintendo owners feelings".

I'm saying that one side can present their argument with data. The other side, particularly with nothing more than their own feelings, is standing on a flimsy floorboard.

Ex: 

Person A: "Nintendo is competing with PlayStation and Xbox. Just look at how the market share for PS4 is shrinking as Switch continues to sell in the market". 

Person B: "Nintendo isn't competing with PS/Xbox. Why? Because I said so."

The problem is substance, not the view itself. Since you said "(even without a reasonable long justification)". It doesn't need to be long, it just needs to exist. Why is it not competing? What are the others doing that keep it in its own bubble? Do they share any of the same 3rd party games? Are their sales not impacted by one another?

All of those are reasonable questions that should at least receive (in a few of those cases) some form of answer to present a counter argument. This is especially necessary if you are someone with a known history of attacking a specific brand without justification. 

Got it.

Not trying to bother you, but since I'm rather new about here, I'm still learning how to not cross the line while polite arguing.
