What are the spiritual dangers of having an argumentative mind, according to this text?

Chapter 2 warns quite strongly against having a mind geared towards argumentation. It states that where there is a tendency for argumentation, there is an abundance of ignorance and Maya. Such a mindset is filled with bad thoughts and false logic, making a person unfit for self-knowledge because they are 'devoured' by ignorance. The text explicitly says that for such a person, there is no happiness in this world or the next; they only find unhappiness everywhere. It advises against trying to establish one's own side or refute another's, calling such dualistic explanations a 'useless effort.'
