I don't see this as an insult. He's saying that he made a valid argument
(which I saw, and so did others) and you failed to see it, but your
failure does not make the argument nonexistent.
I don't see that pointing out a particular failure is an insult.
Me, I failed to look over my shoulder and crashed my bicycle, breaking my
arm and ruining a perfectly good rim. Personal failure, right there. If
you said to me, "You failed to watch where you were going", I would not
consider this an insult.
