Elitists? Trolls? Both?

Here's the situation:
The conversation came up in Trade on my server the other day that only items that count toward
actually are "Epics" regardless of color.
Meaning items like
this
and
this
are (and he used both terms) "blue" or "superior" since they don't qualify as ilvl213+ for the achievement.
He was obviously an elitist and nearly as obviously a Troll. Anyone care for a civil discussion on the matter?

He might not have been either, just sadly misinformed... (how I wish that was the case...)
I'm gonna assume he's a troll, not an elitist.

Best to not attribute to maliciousness what can be explained by stupidity.
Second best quote ever! Occam's Razor of the internet.
And to add to the thread- Epic just means purple.
Staff of Jordan
is an epic.

Here's my view:
Purple = Epic. Period.
The guy might as well claim the earth is flat. It isn't. Its round. Just like purple = epic.

If he was sadly misinformed, he also was unwilling to listen to any attempt to dissuade him from his ignorance.
I tried my damnedest to stay out of the "discussion" but since I was on my bank alt I just chimed in with a "Purple = Epic, Period" but my main's have him ignored.
His topic brought up a more valid view on elitism that it causes the Catch-22 of needing to be geared to do Heroics, but can't get gear without Heroics.
I lean to the side of if you can pull you're weight and not cause a wipe, you're welcome to my Heroic group.
