Nice explanation. However...
The mistake is in thinking that it is at all possible to "win" an
argument with Hatter. For there to be a winner, both sides must a) be
playing to win, and b) playing the same game. However, it doesn't
appear that arguing a point to a conclusion is Hatter's intention at
all. Everyone keeps trying to prove him wrong, but all he wants to do
is get a rise out of everyone, so you're playing different games.
I doubt there are any examples of design, logic, proof or anything else
you can post that will sway his comments -- because they are all
irrelevant to his game, which is prolonging the exchange as long as
possible. For him to succeed at his game, he doesn't need to be right
or wrong, he only needs you to respond.
I've noticed that when he is genuinely seeking advice or answers, his
posting style is completely different and his responses are civil.
Some people collect stamps. Some people play video games. Hatter
trolls Usenet. Everyone needs an outlet.
I'm not suggesting anything so pretentious that everyone just stop
responding to him. That would be pointless, because someone will
*always* respond. But at least know which game you're playing. ; )
