There is a reason you are saying each thing you are saying. Saying 'but I would never order a banana split' in this context has a different subtext than if you said it after watching someone else order one. I won't re-explain it, because I was fairly clear, but yes, saying 'I would never' is an inherently judgemental negation of the supposedly non-judgemental 'you do you.' It is trying to claim both the stance of 'I don't judge,' and 'I am judging.' It is a lie, either to the listener or to yourself.
I don't like liars, but I try to give people a chance to realize their mistake, if it is one, by explaining their error. After that, I have to assume idiocy or ill will. Whichever it is, goodbye.
I'm still not going to argue with you about how you percieve the phrase "you do you". And why you so desperately want to double down on that tangent is beyond me.
It's a new level of arrogance trying to tell me what I mean when I say "you do you". When i already explained what I mean with it after your initial confusion.
You got 2 brain cells, both fighting for third place. God bless and good luck.
