I think you misunderstood the point you were replying to. The idea is that you can’t really have a discussion about what it enables or how it’s used unless you already understand the technical details. And that shows as a lot of the comments/blog posts about this topic are using underlying technical assumptions that are entirely incorrect.

The plain language of the comment doesn’t say that:

> so people who disagree can point out specific and concrete technical flaws

That’s the basis of my reply. I think you have a good point; but it isn’t what the parent said.

The criticism the original post has of WebBundles is fundamentally technical. All of their privacy and anti-adblocker claims stem from the idea that the bundles have special URL randomization powers that the current one-resource-per-request model can't replicate.

If that technical basis is incorrect, the whole thing just collapses. There's nothing left. Not allowing disproving the technical basis of these kinds of posts would mean that we have to just accept conspiracy theories at face value. That does not seem like a healthy outcome.

(Or to put it another way: you wanted to discuss "how this technology will be used". But how can we possibly have that discussion without agreeing on "what the techology can do" first?)
