Kent, with all due respect, do you not always follow your suggested
formulation that you've stated above.  That is to say, you do not
always assume that your conversational partner is trying to raise
objections in good faith.  You also want to assume that you are the
smartest person in the room, and if they object, they are Obviously
Wrong.

As a result, it's not pleasant to have a technical conversation with
you, and as others have said, when someone like Christian Brauner has
decided that it's too frustating to continue with the thread, given my
observations of his past interaction with a wide variety of people,
including some folks who have been traditionally regarded as
"difficult to work with", it's a real red flag.
