    Debate may be interesting, but it always pays to follow some ground rules:

    - don't confuse personal opinion with fact. You use the word 'is' as if to indicate fact, where you statement is really an opinion.
    - don't assume that we all have the same reasons for using straights.
    - don't assume that there are no other criteria for a razor than 'sharp'.
    - try to explain you point of view and how you come to a conclusion, instead of making rash statements that may convey the same information, but seem to be made for the purpose of provocation. I don't like provocational debate.

    Opening a discussion like you did in real life would have a significant chance of you ending up on the side walk, trying to open your swollen eyes in order to look for your teeth.
    Just because this is the internet doesn't mean that you should forget your manners.

    Reasoned debate is fine. Being needlessly rude and provocative is not.

    Posting like you did in this thread would normally have me throw you out, at least temporarily.
    But our members already replied and got into the argument, so my good deed for today will be not to ban you. Keep the above points in mind and you will be just fine.
