The difference is that:

 - You wrote an insult without waiting for the discussion to come to
   a conclusion. I think you are wrong and i am willing to argue it.

 - Andi first tried to injected fear, uncertainty and doubt into the
   discussion a week ago, then ignored 3 mails from 3 separate people
   and thus when he repeated his nonsense today (while still ignoring
   the feedback he got) i sure can call his opinion 'nonsense'.

Thanks,
