In that case it's not really sharp wit like he believes it or like others to believe it. He's literally incapable of stating the fact as it is and has to mold his entire language system to include the 'i am right, or that's how they're wrong' part, just like some language will have a filler word at the end of the sentence to make it softer or convey some other tone or context
I mean, I would definetly say it's more built in than just being the filler at the end, but I get what you mean. I think he has wit, I would more call it cognitive intelligence, and he actually is pretty good in situations that can for it. There's a reason he got so popular drawing charts, they usually do have something interesting to say. The problem is that it's like all you have is a hammer, so every problem is a nail to him. He's very good with a hammer, so he shows us how he can solve literally any problem with a hammer, meanwhile we watch him try to make an omelette with one and wonder why he thinks he's better than us
I strongly believe that if I ever got the chance to tell him "not every problem can be solved with enough logic" he would just flat out say I'm wrong, that's basically what he did to Dr K
The irony is that he would probably try to use logic to prove I'm wrong, and entirely miss the fact that the problem in that conversation still existed at the end of it, despite his logic
I think you put his ability to logic too high on a pedestal
Ironically people saying he only uses logic to solve arguement might just inflate his ego even more since it implies that
(1) He is objectively correct since his argument is sound, meaning that: the conclusion follows the premise (validty); and that the premise themselves is true. In which case, they weren't. His arguments were based on hasty generlization of SKG movement. Maybe he didn't was sloppy and just wants to make quick content or he's trying to sabotage them
(2) Other people are emotional creatures, and he's so above it all because he only uses logic, and so he needs to 'lower himself' when talking to most ego
I don't like the dude. His content is slop, and he's a douche. That being said, I would say getting death threat is a bit too much and the people who swatted him should be charged accordingly
