This was clearly a dispute over Kant's theory of knowledge. Does sensibility triumph over understanding? Or vice versa? Or must both be combined to achieve true knowledge?
Naturally, violence was the only resort.

I heard it started as an argument over the best way to prove that the eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix are always real, and it escalated to the Kant argument as the tempers rose.

“Naturally, violence was the only resort.”
As the actor Kevin Sorbo recently pointed out on Facebook: when words don’t work anymore, when the validity of speech is rejected, all you have left is violence.
Those are my word, but his point is well taken and, as you indicate, demonstrated by this “news story”.
