I'm sure plenty do that, me included. If you make a valid point and it
gets argued, then argue until it stops or your argument (or theirs) is
falling on death ears ... or you just give up, then move on. Although I
don't expect to win pissing contests (especially with Rick), I tend to
decide that the other opinion /may/ be true or not and simply beg to
differ when there is clear relevance on both sides of the argument,
ending any potential and wasteful continued posts about the matter.
