"I don't think I'm the only one in this thread who saw rayiner [...]"
Uhm, no. Like many of rayiners "arguments" it's authoritative rhetorical bullshit. He frames the question, makes some assertions that aren't backed up and leaves the burden of proof on the reader. If you look closely you'll find he's not even taking much of a position on the subject. So even if you manages to disapprove what he's claiming you'll end up in a discussion you can't win since he's the one making up the rules as you go along. Actually this is quite similar to how copyright keeps getting extended.
