No, this argument is not convincing.
As per the Ricardian model a nation will have a comparative advantage in the production of one good even if it doesn't have a absolute advantage. Comparative advantage can be described as an ability to produce the good at a lower price i.e. by giving up less of the other good.
The nation will specialize in the production of the good it is having the comparative advantage and export it, importing the other good. It will benefit both the nation even if one nation is producing more of both the good it is a mutually beneficial trade.

Trade makes sense when a country can produce a good at a lower opportunity cost than another country. Explain why this is the case. A consumption possibilities curve (CPC) is separated from the PPC when trade is present. Explain what the CPC represents and how it shows increased well being in society with trade.

Consider two identical countries, country A and country B, that both produce shampoo, a good characterized by product differentiation, with identical increasing returns to scale technology. Each variety of shampoo is produced by a different firm, so the market exhibits all the characteristics of the monopolistic competition model of trade. 1)If country A and country B trade, what type of trade would be more likely to occur: intra industry or inter industry? WHY? 2)If two countries are allowed to trade...
When a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner
4. Specialization and trade When a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Then the country will specialize in the production of this good and trade it for other goods. The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers (PPFs) for Maldonia and Desonia. Both countries produce potatoes and tea, each initially (i.el, before specialization and trade) producing 24 million pounds of...

Ricardo’s theory of trade suggests that it makes sense for a country to specialize in the production of those products that it produces most efficiently and to buy the products that it produces less efficiently from other countries, even if this means that the country is buying products that in reality, it could produce more efficiently itself. This means that Ricardo showed that a country can derive advantages by trade even though it has an absolute advantage in producing all products. The Heckscher-Ohlin theory of ...

4. Specialization and tradeWhen a country specializes in the production of a good, this
means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost
than its trading partner. Because of this comparative advantage,
both countries benefit when they specialize and trade with each
other.The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers
(PPFs) for Maldonia and Lamponia. Both countries produce potatoes
and coffee, each initially (i.e., before specialization and trade)
