One interpretation is that his ideas are not worthy of discussion.

That may not be what you meant, and you've also indicated that you
don't even want to discuss your own proposal so maybe it's just that

obvious interpretation.

That said, he has overstated a number of points, and I do think that is
wrong of him.
