Let's look on the bright side. The people voted this way (quite significantly) so they must be seeing something positive there. I already know all the downsides so let's discuss the upsides.

I apologise that I haven't provided a follow-up. They keep me very busy at work. I will try to check back in over the weekend to respond in kind. I would like to thank you for staying respectful and data-driven, even when I was not always equally respectful.

No worries mate, I understand. I'm happy to file this under 'agree to disagree' also, as I'm sure we all have better things to do with our time than argue on the internet!

To be fair, you are the first one I've had discussions of this sort with online who cites any kind of evidence at all, other than feelings. A breath of fresh air.
