Don't just look at the original point - I never claimed it to be a good one - look at
Nogrod's reactions to it (and his reaction to my reaction...): those are what makes me suspicious.

Just to clarify: I don't think that arguments like "
A plays differently than usual" are meta-reasoning - they're still concerned only with our in-game-personalities. In the case here, it reached out to out-game-personality ("Winning is not that important to me..."), and I don't think it's good to go there.
