OK.
I think you need to step back a little and apply the above to this
situation. By that I mean how you are interacting with others, not the
various questions about systemd, how many NICs a board has in general
and so on.
The results you are getting are far from optimum - you may eventually
get an answer that satisfies you but in general it is involving long
winding threads that frustrate others.
So I suggest you apply reason and investigation to determine why that
might be so.
One highly workable method is when you find yourself taking a contrary
position and about to explain why you think what you think, then reverse
it. Instead, state that you disagree, that you think something else and
invite the other to explain why they are saying what they are saying.
This method has high success in revealing to you what it is you have to
realise first, as you mention above)

No, it's about people and how people communicate concepts and ideas.
It's about how Dale is a long term contributor and people generally
think well of him and how statistically he is right more often than he
is wrong. He's worth paying attention to.
