The arguments and the way they were delivered during the trial felt more like an online interaction than anything that would happen in real life. The points were boiled down to their most essential components that have been repeated over and over again. While this factor might not necessarily make them wrong, it also doesn't make them any more interesting (especially through the lens of what is essentially a found-footage movie).
