Hey no problem!
"feather evidence is sketchy at best," that might just be the most ignorant thing I've read in awhile. I'm sure you're already aware, but there is a ridiculous amount of evidence supporting feathered dinosaurs. We have physical evidence that all sorts of dinosaurs sported feathers from Microraptor to Yutyrannus. In fact some time ago it was through A dinosaur's feathers (Sinosauropteryx) that we were able to uncover it actual colors! That's amazing! Paleontologists have been saying for years one of the few things we'll never learn about dinosaurs is what colors they were, and yet here we have a feathered dinosaur, which thanks to the fact it had feathers(well... ptoto-feathers...), who's colors we were able to figure out! Now obviously not all dinosaurs had feathers, I'm pretty doubtful Argentinosaurus was packing a feathery coat, but there are definitely dinosaurs that had feathers.
Trust me Droemar i know your pain, my uncle just straight up believes they never existed and he never wastes a moment when he gets the chance to remind me.
