Well, you did describe it as a "rant," and used some ALL CAPS stuff:
Jesus, people! "Data" is the PLURAL!!! "The data ARE out there"..."the data DON'T support the argument."
If you're going to waste time arguing about personal preferences as if they're empirically derived, you could at least do it grammatically.
/rant
Umm...no.

People use units that convey what they want to convey. If someone thinks that "I did 2 miles of climbing" gets the point across better than "I did 10,000 feet of climbing," they have license to do so. Along the same lines, I know that I've occasionally referred to power output in terms of horse power rather than watts.

No. If you said, "OLH is a 3 mile climb," I'd assume that it's a climb over the course of 3 miles, but if you were to say, "OLH is 3 miles of climbing," I would assume that you don't know what you're talking about because there aren't any ascents that yuge.

Except you already admitted you interpreted 2.5 miles of climbing as distance, not altitude gain.

As a general rule, yes. YOU knew he didn't mean 13,200 vertical feet of ascent per lap, didn't you? And you knew that because he put it in miles, which is the unit we commonly use for distance, rather than feet, which we commonly use for altitude gain. Note that even pilots, who ascend literal miles speak in terms of feet of ascent, not miles.

I was once arguing politics on Facebook with a guy. Others had ben part of the conversation but it went on long enough that everyone else got bored and left, and it was just him and me and it went on and on.
Finally, he said, "Why are we doing this?"
I said, "I don't know about you, but I have a pathological need to get in the last word. This time, though, I'll let you have it."
He said, "Thank you!"
I said, "You're welcome."

I tried to follow the last series of posts, it seems I confused things. Sorry.
I just did my interval day. 110 feet of climbing per mile. IF was 1.04 for the whole ride. What is weird? My average HR was only 120 BPM and at the end of every set, it would go right down to 70-80 bpm. I know that is very good to to see. I drank two German Weizen last night. I am so confused.

This is why we often use Median, rather than Mean, in determining "average" - because a small number of very high values can skew Mean in a way that doesn't affect Median.

Perhaps, but there are a whole hell of a lot more cheaper brands of gin than more expensive ones.
