This is not science.  "Open individualism" has been redefined in this very
discussion, in a moving-the-goalposts fashion with no acknowledgement that
said redefinition happened, when it was shown to conflict with what
evidence could be mustered.

As commonly happens.  "I presented a thing, and people who were objecting
at first stopped objecting, so I must be right," ignoring any other reason
(such as exhaustion, or - in your example - lack of opportunity to object)
why said objections might have temporarily stopped.
