Excuse me, but your accusation is too vague for me to understand what you are getting at.

The word "punitive" has meanings in a legal context and the word has meaning in a general linguistics context. I don't know what "data", you claim that I have ignored. I do appreciate your conclusion that this is going nowhere, I agree.
