People argue that you can’t play a goalie more than that due to fatigue. Then point to the fact that most goalies play no more than 55-60 as evidence. And say ‘see?’

That’s not evidence of fatigue being an issue, it’s evidence that you need two goalies.

For a place where people can get very pedantic and treat hyperbolic statements as factual statements to be disputed, I would think that nuance would be appreciated.

If you want to call me something, how about ‘black kettle’? :-)
I don't believe I called you a name.
I described your position as arrogant, which I find it to be.
And I've tried to discuss nuance in this. Nowhere have I stated that a specific raw number is required - but rather I've spoken more about the YoY increase in workload.
A singular example (Kipper) doesn't mean everyone can do it.
As discussed earlier its about risk management. And the risk of burning BSD out to me is more important to manage.
