  Recently, F. Wang commented on our work "Scaling properties of background-
and chiral-magnetically-driven charge separation in heavy ion collisions at
$\sqrt{s}_{\rm NN} = 200$ GeV" and made several claims to support his
conclusion that our results are fallacious. His conclusion and claims are not
only incorrect; they show a fundamental disconnect with the rudiments of the
$R_{\Psi_2}(\Delta S)$ correlator. This rebuttal addresses the root
misconception responsible for Wang's false claims.
