      Then why the fixation on solitary confinement?

      If your objection is on imprisonment then argue against that, not the specifics of a certain imprisonment.

          You realise it is morally permissible to provide a more general argument.

          Which is a better comment, “steak tastes better with barbecue sauce” OR “I don’t like steak, but it tastes better with barbecue sauce”? Doesn’t the former suggest a preference of eating steak?

                You mean the conversation where I already told you I was staying on topic? I’m pretty sure I can keep track of it quite well. And, again, if you don’t want to stay on the topic about the poor boy who was put in solitary, find someone else to talk to about whatever it is you would like to talk about instead.
