Maybe so.

Some people cannot understand the truths that such a method reveals, others, apparently, simply and willfully refuse to do so.

In any case, reduction to the absurd is a perfectly valid way of discovering and demonstrating limits. Not only is it a valid method, it is indispensable for both logical and mathematical purposes. Entire fields of math would be impossible with out it.

Whether someone lacks the metal capacity to understand or willfully refuses, the truths revealed are still truths.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
