This is literally the meme - "Don't ask questions, just consume product! Then get excited for next product."
Tman2000 gave an ordered list of three specific critiques in his OP of specific issues he has with the game and how Firaxis may try to solve these problems. I think you need to argue the critique, and not the person presenting the critique.
But, I do think the debate has degenerated to such an extant that no one will ever change their mind or be persuaded. And that doesnt bode well for the game, because without any constructive criticism, it will never improve.
