ETA: I am surprised because now it seems you don't actually believe I am incorrect, you simply think my points to address the argument I was responding to are not important. You certainly seem to imply that you think IP and PP are actually different or at the very least it doesn't matter if they are or not. Furthermore, you actually agree with my assertion that they should be treated differently. Neither of which points you made prior to the post to which I replied with the above quoted post.

I am surprised you would spend so much time implying and suggesting that I am wrong and being extreme when you don't actually believe that to be the case. I am surprised you would seemingly wish to waste both your time and my own arguing back and forth about something which it now appears you agree with totally but simply for different reasons. I'm surprised you wouldn't simply start by stating "I agree they are different but don't think it matters. I agree they should be treated differently but for different reasons to you and here are those reasons...."

END EDIT.

Firstly, I suggest you refer to my most recent posts if you are interested. I believe I was responding to a different argument than what you think. Ergo, your responses about why I am wrong and extreme are not relevant because they do not relate to what I was actually addressing and discussing.

However, if you are still interested and have a clear understanding of the argument I was actually addressing and if you wish to do so,

Please list any incorrect assumptions I made.

IP is actually different to PP. That's not an assumption, that is fact.
Therefore, IP rights should not be treated the same as PP rights. That is not an assumption it is an assertion.

So, if you are interested, enlighten me as to which assumptions I even actually made in my argument and, if I actually made any, why they are wrong.
