I personally think it's good to call out arguments that we disagree with, that are imprecise, or irrelevant.
Not as pressing in this case but elsewhere if you leave those arguments uncriticized it gives those you are arguing against more leverage in the form of things they can point out.
What if its totally irrelevant to the larger issue and the nitpicking of minor parts of an article are just used to distract and diffuse any conversation actual issues?

It's important we hold people to high standards
