No, Mr Summers, your conclusion is wrong. My side has been stated

I am no longer debating these topics with you, because in the place of
substantive debate, your contributions seem to be picking at the words
that are used,

That is because the 'words that are used' are design to convey the
actual meaning of what he says. If you simply ignore the words and make
up your own mind what he means, and get it wrong, then, yes, he may
have to 'be picking at the words'.

On the other hand, Mr Plinston... it seems as though a particular question
has been found that has, repeatedly, caused Mr Summers to stop replying.
