=== I’ll label SReflection’s arguments SR1, SR2, … and then give each a status. ===

==== SR1. “Third party chiming in.” ====
Not an argument — just positioning.

SR2. “The original statement that the OP post is too long is very valid criticism.”
* What it’s claiming: Greg’s “too long” critique is legitimate.
* Status: Contested
* Why: OP has already argued length is justified because it’s a pinned “full guide” with necessary context (OP-B1–B7). Those are challenges to “too long is valid.”
* Are OP’s challenges standing (unquestioned)? Not anymore, because SReflection is now challenging them back with additional reasons (see SR4–SR9). That moves this from “in question” (Greg) to a live dispute.

SR3. “The post feels like AI-generated content that hasn’t been pruned down.”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: No one in the provided text has directly rebutted “it’s AI-generated” or “it’s unpruned.” OP hasn’t said “I wrote it myself” or “it wasn’t AI” or “it was heavily edited.”
* Important nuance: it’s still a claim, but within this thread it currently has no direct counterargument.

SR4. “This is almost immediately obvious to anyone who’s used an AI model.”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: Nobody has challenged the “obviousness” claim yet. It’s also a broad generalization, but it’s not disputed in-thread.

SR5. “If you didn’t put time into writing/editing it, people will feel it isn’t worth their time.”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: OP hasn’t directly countered the “you didn’t put in time” premise, nor the implied reciprocity norm (“effort signals respect for readers’ time”).
* Note: This is partly conditional (“if”), but it still carries an implied accusation that OP likely didn’t invest time.

==== SR6. “I did my due diligence and read the entire thing.” ====
* Status: Unquestioned
* Why: Self-report; no one contests it.

SR7. “The prose is far longer than it should be.”
* Status: Contested
* Why: OP’s earlier justification (pinned guide, necessary context, under character max, etc.) functions as an existing challenge to “longer than it should be.”
* But SR7 also challenges OP’s claim that the length is justified — so we now have a back-and-forth.

SR8. “Better organization is to provide alternative threads for sub-issues rather than an omnibus thread.”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: Nobody has argued against this proposal yet. OP has argued the omnibus is justified, but hasn’t explicitly rebutted “separate threads would be better.”

==== SR9. “Instead of putting a flow chart into text, create a graphic that’s easy to ingest.” ====
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: No counterargument has been presented.

SR10. “Take the list spam and organize it.”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: No one has contested this suggestion yet. (Also, calling it “list spam” is rhetorically loaded, but still not challenged.)

==== SR11. “As an aside, the commenter isn’t wrong: you have a tremendous issue taking criticism positively.” ====
* Status: Contested
* Why: OP previously denied “defensiveness” and framed their responses as clarification + standards enforcement (OP-D4, OP-B2, OP-B6). That challenges the “you can’t take criticism” framing.
* But: SR11 also adds an independent endorsement of Greg’s earlier tone-critique (Greg-C1), giving it new support.

SR12. “You don’t need to take down everyone who disagrees with your opinion with an overly long meandering reply…”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: No one has yet directly disputed the behavioral characterization (“take down everyone,” “meandering reply”), though it’s clearly an evaluative/charged description.

SR13. “…then try to use mod powers to censure them when they’re not willing to respond to the gish gallop.”
* Status: In question (given your added context about the ban + rules)
* Why: You provided new standing context: Greg was banned for breaking the sub’s rules. If we accept that as a standing, unchallenged fact in our analysis context, then “censure because they won’t respond” is undercut: it suggests the moderation wasn’t about refusing to respond, but about rule-violating behavior.
* In other words: M2 (ban for rule-breaking) is a standing objection to SR13’s “unjust censure” framing. Since SR13 hasn’t rebutted M2 (and can’t yet, because we don’t see SR13 acknowledging it), SR13 is currently in question.

SR14. “Just accept the critique and thank people for their time and interest.”
* Status: Unquestioned (so far)
* Why: It’s advice; nobody has argued against it yet.
