The Buddha taught the relinquishment of views, including those which are based in knowledge. Among other things, attachment to knowledge can foster conceit. It seems to me that polemical discourse, even when there is valid cause, runs the risk of pulling one into this trap.

Lazy. It seems you have (again) misinterpreted the Pali sutta.

Stuka seems to have distinguished views that lead to liberation from those that do not. On this thread, the substance of the posts of Stuka do not appear to be falling into the "superiority/inferiority" conceit mentioned in the quote.
