I know what I’m talking about...

This is an odd thread... my impression of the OPs sentiments is that they're pretty closed minded. I've played for 25 years, I know what I'm talking about, AND I know there are many approaches, theories, techniques, musical systems, and opinions about what to do and how to do it. I like hearing from those whose thoughts and styles differ from my own. I know enough to know I don't know it all, and the more I open myself to the possibilities of doing and thinking about things differently, the better a player I'll be. Don't shut the door, there will always be more to learn.

This is a quantum thread and only exists at the moment you are observing it, otherwise, it is a subatomic particle in a baseball in Kansas.

The relativist fallacy, also known as the subjectivist fallacy, is claiming that something is true for one person but not true for someone else. The fallacy is supposed to rest on the law of noncontradiction. The fallacy applies only to objective facts, or what are alleged to be objective facts, rather than to facts about personal tastes or subjective experiences, and only to facts regarded in the same sense and at the same time. On this formulation, the very name "relativist fallacy" begs the question against anyone who earnestly (however mistakenly or not) holds that there are no "objective facts." So some more work must be done, in a non-question-begging way, to make it clear wherein, exactly, the fallacy lies.
That law of contradiction is a fallacy. I mean, it's kinda true for some people, but definitely not me.

It is a well-known fact that I am in the know of that whereof I speak. I have the stuff! My stuff is the stuff. Your stuff is the poo.
It is also a well-known fact that I have more stuff to speak unto you, however, I have matters of consequence to attend to at this particular moment.
Goodbye and good day to you!
