It was just my opinion, as valid as anyone else's. The 'schooling' was me joking about with bena. Nonetheless, there are millions of lyrical poems in dozens of poetry forms incorporating line repetition and there is no argument. If someone is not aware of it, then they do need to learn as much.
Or it could be that the Villanelle is just a poor form for English, it is after all a French form.
Using your logic: I hate shit. Therefore my hate is due to jealousy because I am unable to create shit.
Maybe you should take a class in logical argument.
