Exchanging, in an argumentative manner. Is argument (arguing) always connoting an idea of hard feelings in Poe's idiom? In other words, can one say "I had an argument with x" and merely mean that views of opposing nature were exchanged and "argued" upon? Or does it most always imply fractitious disagreement?

Indeed. "Exchanging" was the idea I wished to convey.

Cheers.

Thank you ... I think. :-)

If there's a genuine desire to exchange views and learn from the others --
rather than just scoring debating points or being insulting -- it's not an
argument.
