I do think that some people see that type of thing and feel as if their personal reasons are being questioned. Others see that and go "Cool, I didn't know that". Others ignore it all together. It depends on personality and how you read the response.

All true.
The contention more readily begins when someone posts something like:
"I like X because ONLY X does <whatever>.
or
"I like X because Y CAN'T DO <whatever>."
And it turns out those "only" or "can't" parts just aren't true.
That DOES invalidate the reason.
People will tell them so.
Then, the same gamut of responses can occur, and I find some of them utterly inappropriate.
