Maybe you should take your own advise and try to understand his perspective.

Understanding a perspective and agreeing with it aren’t the same thing. Herring’s point was about the ‘I don’t see why anyone would need this’ framing, not that the position itself is hard to grasp.

This is a logical fallacy like saying one should tolerate the intolerance, because otherwise it's intolerance.
