Or you’re not reading the explanations? I’ll try again: all MMOs are video games, but not all video games are MMOs.
When @DeaconElie says “all thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs”, he’s using an analogy. He’s not literally talking about fingers and thumbs.
For example:
@Nemisis was misrepresenting @DeaconElie’s claim about cheating and ToS violations to make it sound like @DeaconElie was saying that breaking the ToS makes you a cheater. In fact, @DeaconElie’s claim is that all cheaters break the ToS, but that doesn’t mean @DeaconElie is saying that everyone who breaks the ToS is a cheater.
Just because someone says “all A are B”, it doesn’t mean you can automatically turn it around and say “well you said all B are A”.
For example, if I say “all burgers are sandwiches”, you can’t say that I claimed “all sandwiches are burgers”.
This was the best I could do. I sure hope it helped, because I have no idea how to do it better.
