1.  Non-remote operators are at all times communicating over wires.

2.  Without wires, there would be no communications whatsoever with other
operators.

What exactly is your point, Paul?

Conversations take place between people.
Telephone calls take place between people.
QSOs take place between people.

Here are two irrefutable facts about (almost) all remote
operation.

1. Remote operators are at all times communicating over
    the internet.

2. Without the internet, there would be no communications
    whatsoever with other operators.

Those who claim that remote operation is exactly the same
as "hands-on" operation are in denial of those two facts.

Please refer to

There's no more to be said :-)
