    But you’re the one positing a claim! The one making a claim is obliged to back it up, not the readers…

      But you aren’t demanding that I defend my claim, you are asking for clarification, right?

        You already explained it here so it’s fine. With that said, though, I would say in general that giving examples (the more, the better) is equivalent to defending, as any relatable example gives any given claim more merit.
