'Momentous' (of great importance or significance) doesn't fit the context of a stubborn debate. 'Ephemeral' (lasting for a very short time) contradicts the fact that the debate lasted for hours.

'Frivolous' means not serious, 'insipid' means dull, and 'verbose' means using too many words - none of these match the emotional impact described.",
