Because your question was originally posted on ServerFault, I suggest you post your argument to Meta.ServerFault. There, post your question and the question marked as duplicate, and explain why you think they are not the same. The users on ServerFault with sufficient reputation to open/close questions can then judge and possibly re-open your post.
