HP switched to an “unlimited depth” (normal to me) stack in RPL machines years before I was born, and I was taught RPN as being based on a stack rather than four registers.

Not only an other argumentum ad hominem, also again fictitious facts. Not exactly a base for an objective discussion.
FYI: The first HP Calculator with "entry RPN" (big stack) was the HP-28c (1987). In the current Line-up HP has 4 RPN Calculators. 3 with "classic" and only one with "entry" RPN.

Where is he attacking you? The "old timers" comment was just a light-hearted phrase to emphasize that you're older than he is. He wasn't born until after 1987 when the big stack debuted so those of us who were (yes, me too) are old timers in comparison. You should be proud of having lived to old age (over 40). The alternative isn't too pleasant.
