Re: What's the actual *advantage* of not having an sd slot?

A change of the origional claim that you should not have tried to make.

 
Well - when I say, Rudy Wieser can't do what Arno Welzel can - that does
that mean? You can not write? You can not read? You don't understand

Hi Arno & Rudy,

Since I'll agree with anyone who makes a sensibly logical statement (and
disagree with those who do not), I have to back up Rudy on this one, Arno.

Frank and you are _desperate_ to find a flaw in the solid logic of:
 
  1. Any phone without the sd slot is less capable than a phone with it,
     all other things being equal (assuming you put an sd card in it!).

  2. All other things being equal, a phone without the sd card slot
     can't do what the phone with the sd card slot can do.

  3. It's now about whether you use the capability that exists,
     It's about whether that capability exists.

Frank is so desperate to fight that logic that he throws in all sorts of
imagined "differences" such as one phone being a better color than the
other, or one phone having a bigger battery, etc., which is simply a sign
of his desperation because he has no logical defense of his belief system.

Arno's desperation to defend his belief system is perhaps a bit more
logical than Frank's assumption that the phone with the sd slot is the
wrong color and hence it's less functional to him...

Arno's desperate attempt is to say he doesn't *care* about the lack of
functionality; which is a fine argument - but it doesn't address the point.

Frank confuses the sd slot with the color of the phone (or other feature).
Arno confuses internal-storage preference for portable-storage capability.

Since phones, by their very nature, are sold in the millions, whether you
use any particular feature or not is a personal choice, but your own
personal choice doesn't erase the fact that it's objectively more capable.

Rudy understood that whether or not Frank likes the color of the phone, and
whether or not Arno enjoys paying an arm and a leg for more internal
storage, the simple facts are that a phone that has the sd slot, that
someone puts an sd card into it, and uses it, will be able to do
"portable-storage" things which are *impossible* to do without the card.

It's basic logic guys.
Didn't any of you ever go to college?

They teach this stuff in school, you know.
It's called deductive reasoning.
