The person I was arguing with was saying that "infrastructure is anything which is something anyone can do". I gave an example of something that anyone can do which isn't infrastructure.

It's absolutely a direct refuation

a counter-example which disproves their original statement. It's not a "straw man", as much as you get mad and scream that it is.
