No horse in this race, but your phrasing seems a bit weird, honestly... If reduced, your comments read as:

"You don't know about X? Well, at least I know about X and Y..." Doesn't seemed like a good faith comment to me either?

And then you say "You misunderstood my intentions so I'm going to disengage". For what it's worth, I didn't interpret your argument as insulting someone, but also it wasn't a useful or productive comment either.

What did you hope to achieve with your comments? Was it simply to state how you know something the other person doesn't? What purpose do you think that serves here?

I guess I misinterpreted your comment? I do apologise if that's the case. I certainly didn't intend to "jump down your throat", I was asking you to explain your comment further because I don't understand what you're getting at.
