Just thought I would pop in since I occasionally backsearch myself and clear up that yes I was using the version of the phrase in that context that is more closer to "There is nuance here that requires us to inquire further to gain a more complete understanding of the subject."
Yes, there is also context where it means the same thing as circular reasoning. Yes, this is annoying. English sucks sometimes. Oh well.
He talks about narcissism. I remember, ages ago, like over a decade, in about 2010-2011, someone sent me a link to The Last Psychiatrist. https://thelastpsychiatrist.com/
The guy stopped writing way back, but I remember I always thought his endless ramblings about how everyone's a narcissist nowadays made no sense - the articles were interesting but I always disagreed with the conclusions. It took me a few years but I understand now. Everyone really is a narcissist, it's the worst plague humanity has ever encountered.
That's probably the best blog I've ever read. I particularly enjoyed the article about why women wear makeup (at least I think that's what it was called).
Mentiswave is great. Love his work.
He says like 30 seconds in the video that "this begs the question..."
Negro I am an ESL speaker and even I know that's not what that phrase means, seriously https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question
He's using a common phrase, not the fallacy
EDIT: In that same wikipedia article it mentions that the phrase means something different in vernacular english lol

SENPAI NOTICED ME
At least the word order matters in English, unlike some other languages (I'm looking at you, LATIN).
Latīna, quod cāsūs lingua habet, superior quam Anglica est
YEAH, AND IT'S WRONG
I AM SERIOUSLY TURBO AUTISTIC ABOUT THIS
FUCK YOU
Can you explain why it's wrong? What do you mean?
