Overheard a guy at B&H saying 35mm is "dead format" for street photography

I was picking up some Tri-X 400 last Saturday and this dude was telling the cashier that medium format is the only way to shoot street now. Took everything I had not to chime in, but I've been shooting 35mm Leica on the Lower East Side for 3 years and my keeper rate is way higher because I can actually move fast. Has anyone else had to bite their tongue when someone gets elitist about formats?

Just let your photos do the talking. Keep shooting fast and quiet with that Leica while they're still framing up.

Told some guy at a photo walk the same thing and just kept shooting from the hip with my M4 while he was still setting up his tripod.
