Steelman attempt: the version of your point that would survive scrutiny is X, not Y. Y is what your critics are attacking.

Let me try a friendly amendment: same conclusion, different premise. Better foundation, same room.

Your second paragraph contradicts your first — or am I misreading?

I'd flip the question: what would have to be true for you to be wrong here?

Hard agree. Tagging @kenji_vinter_66 since they argued the opposite last month and would push back.

Conditional agree. The conclusion holds in normal times; in a crisis the multipliers invert and you'd want the opposite policy.
