Gentleman, you are both visible, respected and more. I have not read all the books noted, nor listened to every possible podcast, nor done anything even close to the kinds of work the two of you have done on this topic (nor the many others, some of whom are here at DPF).
Because of your visibility and the collective nature of the topic, you are linked in (or out) to wider audiences. I cannot afford to travel to COPA, for example, but continued discussion and exposition of the debates can't be bad. I'll get my popcorn and iced coffee; you two stick to the high road and continue the work.
Don't make me choose between you unless it is supremely vital and one or the other has made a grievous and intentional error of some sort with intent to deceive.
Are either of you capable or intent on deception? Somehow, I doubt it.
