None of that rant addresses that if the downside isn't that bad and you have cash to average down, and get the smaller exit pump to your average you need, you walk away with the return, period. You don't make "nothing". If he had cash to keep going the guy in the example could make thousands.
If it doesn't pump but at least stabilizes and he has cash, he can keep bringing in money to eventually bail him out even if it takes a while.
You keep implying that it's the same thing as going all in when it's not.
Yes generally you have to have good taste, be opportunistic, and try to catch things at bottoms. But averaging in affords more leeway. And "bear market" is subjective, some would say this is a leg in a giant trading range.

all you have to do is make $5000 every day for 200 trading days and you've made a million bucks
