At the beginning of my first post, I handily summarized my point. I quote:
I respectfully disagree that Lizards look savage and uncivilized.
This is the only statement I have been arguing for. I disagree that I missed any point, since I haven't made any other.
You made a valid point that looks are subjective anyway, but you spent a lot of time dwelling on your point that civilization is literally cultural, which misses the point. He said they look uncivilized.
However, earlier, I have said:
It seems to me that you are of the opinion that only human-looking individuals can be civilized. This is obviously not true, since the quality of being civilized is not dependent on appearance. [Cambridge Dictionary]
It seems to me that I was exclusively talking about appearance.
I've also argued against them looking objectively savage. If you agree that savage appearance cannot be objectively identified, then there is no point in arguing about it.
Lastly, you seem to indicate that you find their appearance wild, which appears to you as a contradiction to the fact that they are civilized. It seems to me that this is your opinion, about which there is no point in arguing, either.
Your post, however, does not shed any light on just what you are really trying to do here.
