    Here’s the thing. You said a “heatpump is a A/C.”

    Er… No?

    I said “In this context” (using it to keep a room cool), a heat pump is AC.
    No generalization, specifically just this usecase.

    And while the rest of your rant is not wrong, it just does not apply to what I actually said…

      Here is the context of this copy-pasta: I am referencing an old redditor named Unidan, and this post was his downfall. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/people/unidan

      It is fun to take the copy-pasta and modify it to fit any all X are Y but not all Y are X type situations, to reference this bit of our shared internet history in a tongue in cheek manner. I don’t actually have any problem with calling heat pumps multi-purpose A/Cs.
