Interesting thread. Or is it a meta-thread?
Anyway, yes, I have had my mind changed by other posters' arguments, and
have publicly acknowledged it when it happened. I fully expect to do so
again.
But I believe the topic that spawned this thread is destined for permanent
looping - like you, I think most of its participants are not trying to
actually *learn* anything from it.
My definition of a "real" technical writer is simple: somebody resourceful
and/or interested enough to have joined this list. If you're here, you are
one.
