It does not negate all the other valid and logical points of a post or posts.
English is not my native language, but as far as I understand, cherry picking implies selecting information to prove someone wrong while neglecting contradictory evidence. Is that really what I did here? I was replying to the last two posts, i.e., immi.shk's comment and yours (since you said multiple times that you concur with him) because he said:

I am *very* happy that these exciting OS projects exist and I hope they develop fast, far, will be long maintained, and will attract as many people on TMO as possible. However, we can leave the Neo project all we want, that doesn't mean there will be more people working on the OSes (the Neo900 might even marginally contribute to the relevance of these alternative OSes).

This was my only point. Getting into a quote war for that would not do any good, in fact I don't even have any specific comments, or rebuttal list to come up with. Just wanted to say that the continuation of the Neo900 project and the development of PostmarketOS/Leste/DebiaN900/Arch for N900 are not mutually exclusive choices, and I believe presenting them as a crossroad is actually more fallacious than me posting a general comment without quoting what made me post it.

Now this is just my opinion and I'm genuinely happy to discuss or change my mind if I am missing something, I am not fighting, and I'm sorry to see the hostility in your last replies.
