I still wouldnt use it. I dont have to train every day with a spear to notice the fundamental differences between the grips... although I do once a week (it is good for letting out steam). I am young, and I am fit, I do sports. You are not talking to a neckbeard. Striking over a shield isnt that great if you use overhand, because you lose versatility. You cant reach enemies legs with overhand without exposing yourself, you can fight the person in front of you and maybe the person to his right/left (with underhand, you can comfortably reach two people away from the enemy in front of you) and the overhand jab to the upper body is quite predictable because of the limited options the attacker has, and quite blockable, because of the slower, more awkward attack.
You werent rude at all, and you are entitled to your opinion.
