Another player who was at the table during the incident sent me this meme after the problem player in question (they had a history) left the group chat.
Felt like sharing it here because I’m sure more people should keep this kind of thing in mind.

Once you establish a baseline for how that fictional world functions, any deviation from it causes issues with the suspension of disbelief.
Your argument is the same one people have been using for years to deflect any and all criticisms when writers fail to keep up with their own world building or are just too damn lazy to care.
First of all not all parts of a fictional universe have to have the same level of technological advancements. Within that baseline you can do whatever you want it’s fiction. Also the reader or audience doesn’t know everything there is about the world and might have gaps of knowledge.
The argument you’re defending is that a fantasy world doesn’t need to have any realism, yet you’re defending it by coming up with reasons why this fantasy world is actually realistic.
there are a lot of inconsistencies, why are people only focused on the ones that allow people with wheelchair to identify with the main character or whatever?
