I don't have to put any effort into rationalizing my position, because it's already rational. Because I arrived at it rationally, via discursive thinking over a period of time in which learning has been continuous.

Rationalization is what irrational people to to attempt to justify an unjustifiable position.

And since you've approached this interaction in bad faith from the start, I feel no moral nor intellectual obligation to engage with you seriously.

Why would I search for "the line" in a strawman argument? There's no problem on my end to admit in that regard, because the "problem" you deem so relevant is one that you made up and attempted to give my stamp of approval to. It was an argument that I never made, and so my hands are clean in this engagement.

That's the scenario. Feel free to frame it to yourself however you like. You're in a dark room, painting the walls with your own delusion, and calling the open sky ignorant of reality.
