      Dismissing someone’s argument over semantics is trivial objection that doesn’t engage in the actual argument. You understand perfectly well what the argument is, and that it’s addressing a different issue than categories of armament.

      Plus, declaring your opponent an “incompetent fool” to dismiss their argument is a bonus ad hominem fallacy.
