Claiming a scientific authority that doesn't exist and someone calling you on it, isn't putting words in your mouth. Its a reaction to an unjustified claim to authority, that undermines that authority when it is actually appropriate.

It also undermines your own argument. Its good to see you're reply shifted position.
