I’m always wary of those who intercede in debates on (in my case) math education and say “Do you agree that apart from A, that you and he/she are on common ground on B?” This is a foot-in-the-door strategy to then get to “You’re really both saying the same thing.”
I assure you that in most if not all cases, we’re not saying the same things. But thanks for trying.
