except that doesn't happen? It only strengthens my understanding by allowing me to ask questions?
you really need to look at how you're approaching this conversation and calibrate. instead of this mess of assumptions and loaded questions, ask a real, open-minded question such as "what does your workflow look like? what are the pros/cons of this approach?"
if my system works for me, I don't need to prove it to you, however you yourself are missing out on a new style of research which will become incredibly common.
