I'd suggest it depends on whether the (potentially) pedantic point raised has any real bearing on the over point being made initially.
If no - it is.

If you swing 10-20% of that undecided middle ground - that's got to be worth it.

Having not long gravitated from X , I've always been intrigued by the term "extent". Is this: A. the same as mass. B does the altering of salinity around the fringes of Arctic shelves lend itself to ice freezing at slightly higher water temps?
