I think you know exactly what I mean, but just want to argue.

People don't read minds. You either write so your post is understandable, or not. Which you have failed, since yeah - plenty of smaller devs doing small things and it isn't clear what you are advocating for. Splitting up studios? Lone wolves who make the game for 10 years?

Wow, that triggered my trauma really bad for a split second. I used to get told that all the time when I was a kid, just because I was curious and neurodivergent. Eventually I came to see that sentence as a symbol of the poor empathy of neurotypicals for autistic people, and of ableism in general. If you said that in my house to a member of my family you'd probably start a domestic incident, because every autistic person I know has a similar experience.

I'm sorry I triggered you, earnestly. And your point of view is valid.

My comment wasn't intended to shoot down questions or discussions. I made my comment out of frustration, because on this platform there is a lot of nitpicking and assumption, but without actual open dialogue. Had the person I responded to seemed to be interested in my perspective, I would have gladly engaged. Instead, they seemed to have made an assumption about my meaning and told me I was wrong. I don't engage with people like that.

Nevertheless, I apologize.

I have absolutely no idea what you meant if you don't think the reply is a relevant response.
