I hope this is a gentle reponse ;-)

You made an absolute statement about good programmers.  Absolute statements
which are not true are easy to disprove since all you need is one case where
the absolute does not hold.  I was trying to get to you to stop making
absolute statements without first going through some amount of reasoning
about whether or not they hold.  I did this by kindly pointing out flaws in
your argument.  Instead of accepting that your absolute assertion does not
hold you ask why would anyone care about this case (one obvious reason is
that it disproves your assertion ;-).  This simply is not an acceptable
method of arguing.
