You didn’t understand. In this matter realism is a preference.
Imagine that for some reason there is a vote to save apples or oranges. For some reason you can only have one of them, keeping both is impossible.
If you vote to save apples, because you like apples more, then that’s a preference.
If you vote to save apples, because you are selling apples and not saving them would kill your business, then that’s bias.
Voting for testing of the APHE change, because of improved realism, is a preference.
Voting against APHE change, because you like reliably killing tanks in one shot with it, is a preference.
Voting against APHE change, because your favourite vehicles would be worse because of it, is bias.
I don’t even know how to fit grind into this comparison, it’s just irrelevant lmao.
So you just don’t care.
It’s not false equivalence, it’s a correctly contructed analogy.
The point was that if you do a bad thing (stealing/biased vote), you can’t justify it by proving that other people do it too. It doesn’t make you not guilty, they are just as guilty as you.
You thought it’s fallacious, probably because you thought I’m implying that stealing something is as morally bad as biased voting in a video game.
A false equivalence would be something like this:
Biased voting in a video game is bad, stealing is also bad, therefore if you commit either of those, you should go to jail.
