You didn't exactly try to argue or deny that, and "Well *I* think..." isn't justifying or clarifying, its just repeating the initial statement. All I and others were saying is that it's an idea that doesn't fit April whatsoever, therefore it's highly questionable.
Not trying to be mean, it's just the idea you've suggested doesn't make ANY sense at all for April's character. ANY version of April. So, either try and justify it more than, "I personally like the idea," or admit it's simply a flawed idea.
Honestly, I don't have a lot of respect for "agree to disagree". It's just a thing people say to avoid admitting they may have made a mistake. If a person can't own and justify their ideas, and isn't willing to try, then maybe they needed to give the idea more thought before putting it out there.
Nothing personal, just saying. Not trying to be mean or anything. I mean I've definitely heard way worse ideas. There's just too many things that make it not really work without changing April's entire personality, and that should never be the goal. You don't change the character to fit the story, you write the story in service to the character. That's basic.

No, I didn't make a mistake, I gave my points and I think they were valid.
but I know you aren't going to budge and have your own perfect idea of April yourself so I said agree to disagree because we both have our on view on this matter.
Also I disagree with you, I see no problem with changing a character in order for them to become a better asset to a story.
...You know what I don't like about you Leo? You think you figured everything out, you think you know what's better or something. It's a bit annoying.
Look...we are literally getting nowhere...so I think we are done.
