You don't benefit financially, but there are other benefits. For example, you specifically asked for feedback, and you have received some.
I don't get feedback just because you read it. I'm thankful for feedback but my sentence was accurate. I don't benefit if you read it.
Every part of your comment has something factually wrong or fallacious.
My reading the part I am giving feedback on is a prerequisite for actually giving feedback. I am obviously a person who graciously responded to your request, not somebody that you somehow ordered to give feedback. I don't know what you think you gain from viewing it this way.
I didn't say it was inaccurate, but that it didn't tell people why to read the article. You didn't ask me to tell you inaccuracies. You asked for "feedback". You also don't seem to be thankful, because if you were thankful, you'd simply accept the feedback instead of throwing up straw-man arguments.
You have exactly repeated your previous statement that I already proved wrong.
I will offer you one last piece of feedback. Just stop arguing. You can never look gracious pursuing an argument where you ask for advice and then argue with people who took time out of their day to help you.
Upvotes and downvotes don't determine whether people are factually right, but they do help you gauge what people think when they read your comments, and what I'm seeing is that you're not ingratiating yourself to the people who you are asking to read your article. Even if you could win this argument, and you can't, you wouldn't want to, because you'd look bad in doing so. When you ask for feedback, and feedback is given, just graciously accept it. If it's bad feedback, then just ignore it.
