I also don’t see the value in stating that things are obviously one way or another or in general obvious. My reasoning is that, is it obvious to someone who majors in english how many atoms there are in a molecule? No, but to a chemistry major it is. This example very simply demonstrates that there is no such thing as obvious facts or information. Everything is learned and any appeal to obviousness just weakens an argument and adds nothing to a discussion about complex topics where there are no obvious answers. You may think that you know the answer to everything or have the capacity to acquire those answers, but there are so many things that you like all people do not know, including me. No one knows everything and any statement otherwise is a complete lie. Every single person has a different frame of referrence that facilitates how they engage with information, so any appeal to obviousness or common sense as many people refer to when speaking of obviousness, is pointless because there are countless examples of how any given piece of acquired information or knowledge has not been acquired by a different person. I could make many statements about things that I find obvious, like how it obvious that when you say that space is the distance between objects, then it is very obvious that there is nothing inbetween those objects or else there isn’t a so called space between those objects as that space if filled with objects. But what isn’t obvious is that you could mean that you consider any distance at all whether it has objects or not is considered space. You did not state exactly that, but it is obvious that when someone uses terms in an uncommon way and also doesn’t cover every possible interpretation as that is either impossible or too rigorous in the given time frame, misunderstandings will occur. If you value being understood and want me and others to be curious about what your arguments are, then stating it is obvious that things are certain way, isn’t a very compelling argument for why I should continue being curious. You can reason as to how of course people are such and such way and won’t engage with what you say because all manner of ways in which people are something negative, but that doesn’t map onto the reality that people are not inside of your head and therefore cannot know what you know without it being explained in a way that accurately conveys the information. You speak of how often I and others have misunderstood you, but this is your fault. You are responsible for clearly communicating what you mean by what you say. If you use a term differently than how it is commonly used, then you have to specify that or else you will be misunderstood. Language is generalized for the sake of shared meaning and your constant usage of terms in an uncommon way or your complete redefining of them takes away the ability for shared meaning. If you value being understood then you will take what I have said here and be ammicable about it, but if you choose to attack me for pointing out ways in which communication could be improved on your end, then I will not engage in further discussion with you because I don’t value discussion with someone who thinks that they know everything and are never wrong.
