It's like this recent interview, where the interviewer always said things like "So you're saying that blablabla", intentionally strawmanning the guest. And that's simply not something that should happen in a healthy discussion. But then again, we're on the internet, so what am I even expecting lul Yes, I interpreted your words. But it seemed unlikely that it was the case that that was what you really meant, so I phrased it as a question rather than attacking you as if you truly thought it was a fact.

Because if you weren't saying that @Kunoichi's contributions were insubstantial, what was the point of your reply? If it was just to make that observation, then whatever. But if it was trying to contradict anything I said, then either way the overall point of my post still stands, which is what I was trying to clarify.
