I am pointing out to you that what “really really actually happened” is both unknowable and irrelevant to the fact that a billion people think it is true that ‘the perfect man’ took Aisha as wife at 9 or whatnot - and seek to justify and perpetuate this.

This is not arguing both sides of the question- it is pointing out that your minority view is irrelevant to what a billion Muslims believe and practice.

What they believe is more than irrelevant. It is wrong and leads to conclusions contrary to reality.
