    Yeah, it is kind of weird, right?
    I don't know it. And a couple of other people seem to be using the same working definition and assumptions.



    Usually, when I find that I am the only one with a particular thought on something pretty common, I go back and double check all my assumptions on it.

    It is one point I found in 3 minutes of looking.
    There were several subsequent points he also liked, and that was brought up.

    But I guess I'm using everyone else's definition of "Devil's Advocate."
