Earlier quoted context omitted.

There was a time when Youtube view and subscriber count was similar. Now there is a cadre of Youtube professionals whos careers live and die by these numbers. Also, neither I nor anyone else cares about the points, I don't expect to spend them at the karma store. What I do care about, as I'm sure you do as well, is whether something I said is incorrect and why.

I care about being correct, I don't care if the hacker news commentariat agrees with what I say.

I'm sorry, but I have to ask, if you don't care what we all think, why do you bother talking to us at all?

Not the OP. But I think even if you disagree, I can provoke thought or encourage you to look at things from a different angle...
