Your condescension aside, my point stands. Unless I'm crossing your borders, you've got no right to complain. It doesn't matter if the usage of my land changes the wildlife on your land. Try attacking the argument head-on if you can. I'm pretty sure you can't which is why you're being so "herp derp, edge effects is complicated stuff!" Hah.

I never said edge effects were complicated to understand. I merely said you were ignorant of them. Big difference. Edge effects are a complicated process, but understanding them is not complicated.

This is an interesting statement that you have made:

It doesn't matter if the usage of my land changes the wildlife on your land.

First of all, I'm not sure the phrase 'changes the wildlife' really captures the extent of what edge effects cause, but it's one of the things, so we'll accept it for the moment. More interesting are your opening three words: "It doesn't matter...". I would appreciate an explanation of why it does not matter.
