That is not what you wrote. Let us look again at what you wrote.
You expressed your opinion clearly “Yes, they do.”
You then expressed your opinion clearly about those who do not agree with you “If one believes otherwise, one is delusional.”
These two declarative sentences equate those who disagree with your opinion as delusional.
No sir, I believe there is no mischaracterization.

This course of action as outlined would be a useful experiment indeed.

Yes sir, I think it would be.

…Hm, does either of us have the time and resources to devote to such a project? (Not just a rhetorical question).

I presume this is your way of saying that you decline to provide evidence to support your claims that “the cases where this is the situation are gradually being eroded”. Perhaps you believe that unnecessary. I trust you will excuse me if I point out that unsubstantiated claims are less convincing than those backed up by evidence.
