I'm assuming you are addressing only the last paragraph of my reply to Wilk. But you didn't answer my question either. This is a bit of straightforward science. Again, how would warmer water, higher absolute humidity, and higher sea level not play a role in the development and impact of cyclones?

Your quoted bits do not address that science, rather, they are cherry-picked sections of discussions detailing long-term trends in the frequency and intensity of specific climate-related events. It is certainly true that those trends have been largely inconclusive. But if you read the full context in the ARs and the SREX instead of the isolated, cherry-picked bits offered up by the Daily Caller, you will find a very transparent discussion of how past trends are expected to change with warming...with that expectation based on that science that I referenced above.

Back to that question that you attempted to intercept. Any answer?
