If this were a dissertation or something similar, I'd agree. This is a post on a forum, to me it was sufficiently clear what the actual quote is.
We are talking about two people here, so yes it is. No one misunderstood anything, including you two.
If you want to engage further, focus on the content, not the form. I find it telling that all you can complain about is how I did not 'quote correctly' not do not try to refute the content. Fine, I am not interested in this discussion, find something more worthwhile
