He gave you several examples - including by your estimate, at least 20% of those listed where the source was not called unreliable and/or the use was endorsed.

You could have said thank you. You could have said, “oh, ok, well maybe flying an airplane doesn’t mean my knowledge extends to how VAERS data is used in medical research”.

Instead, you ventured out with your opinion on how VAERS data should be used and an insipid football analogy that I have read three times and still don’t understand what you were trying to say, other than it was incredibly easy to see that you were wrong (the goal posts were that obvious and you still missed? Was that your point?)

You don’t get to be right every time. Sometimes you should just say thank you.
