This always struck me as an odd argument. I hadn't voted for the Democratic candidate since 2008 (all 3rd party), and I hate how they run their primary. But this was EXACTLY what registered democrats voted for in the primary.
There was a primary, and a published, publicly available ticket of Biden/Harris. That ticket had all the deligates, all the funds, all the votes. It was VERY clear who was being voted for and who Biden's successor would be in the highly possible event something should happen to him. When he bowed out and endorsed her, the deligates, acting in good faith... went to her.
Literally any other outcome would have been unfair to the primary voters. Maybe better, but not what they voted for.
