Agreeing to disagree is the middle way–and thus not your way. Either admit that you are wrong or fight it until the end.

Agreeing to disagree is a false middle. Compromise is the real middle. (But you’re right, some times it just won’t work.)
Let’s call compromise the Aristotelian mean–that is in between but on a higher plane. (brashness-courage -cowardice) And agreeing to disagree the middle.
So does that mean compromise is even attainable? By its definition your conceding something.
