I think this is largely true but there is something to be said for making arguments for Biden to inoculate lurkers. The person you're arguing with won't change their mind, but you may stop observers from falling down the rabbit hole.

I'm not saying that the New Deal coalition wasn't diverse. I'm saying that the Dems having consistent house majorities was because of the marginal impact of southern whites. We basically had 20% of the house on lock and fought with the GOP over the other 80%
