God, you're right, this is almost as bad as those "well chemistry is just applied physics and physics is just applied mathematics so math is the best" nonsense that shows up every so often.

I'd expect that firm convictions are usually produced by tea- or coffee-drinking analytical philosophers, rather than by either wine or cannabis :)


OK, in the spirit of full disclosure, I did skip over my coffee-drinking leanings :)
