If you ask the presenter a question and don't like their answer, thank them for the answer and STFU. There is no way for you not to look like a total a-hole of you start arguing with the presenter.

Yes, and of course the speaker was a woman with 40 years experience in the subject matter. Be he knew best because he "read an article".

"That is an interesting perspective, might we be able to talk a little more about it later?" or something in that vein is the only proper response at that time.
