To argue excessively, trivially, or in a petty manner; to quibble or bicker about minor details.
A playful or archaic verb formed from argue plus the causative suffix -fy (as in 'horrify'). It appears in older dictionaries as a somewhat humorous term for nitpicking arguments.
Argufy is a delightful archaic verb that deserves revival—it perfectly captures that specific annoyance of someone bickering over details nobody cares about.
