Unless you're a professional philosopher, in which case you should keep on going with your argument even if you don't like it. This, according to a formal philosophy professor, is a thing that happens--you start an argument and end up somewhere that you don't like but that's where the logic leads.
I often have discussions with myself, where I take stances that I utterly don't support, just to see how I would argue against them.
It helps with decision making, because earlier you believed something was true, but now you know for sure.
That is really clever! I was proud of myself as an undergrad for having gone through the Practical Reasoning/Critical Thinking classes. You took it to another level.
People need to have good faith dialogues with themselves more often, I don't think it's something most people do with any frequency or regularity. Easier just to occupy your internal monologue with a bunch of background noise, like a podcast or something.
