devil's advocate means that you don't actually agree with what you're defending so much as you're doing it just 'because someone has to do it' so you might not want to use that analogy.

No, that's pretty much what I meant. I think I wrote that I was making my post sound stronger in a "Devil's Advocate" kind of way, (rather than playing a pure "Devil's Advocate") because I didn't totally agree with everything I wrote, but when I happened on the page the first three responses were all favourable to the main post, none of them challenging the view at all. I felt some disagreement with his main idea, but not enough to post until I saw such a complete lack of opposition.
