Why does it seem as though my sister purposely always disagrees with me to make herself feel superior/smarter?

I can say something like “Cleaning isn’t OCD in itself but the OCD manifest into cleaning as a way to deal with the OCD.” And since she went to school for psychology she’ll say “I went to school and studied that. That’s not the only form of OCD.” As if that makes what I said to be untrue. Or, more recently, I was saying how most or even every decision we made or make in life was influenced by our homes. I was basically saying everything starts and home, Meaning, your home is what essentially creates you. She had to disagree by saying “Well no. some people grew up very privileged and never wanted for anything they just were crash test dummies.” As if having parents or a parent that took care of you was gonna automatically make you make good decisions considering life is beyond the material things. It can get very frustrating whenever talking with her because rather she consciously does it or not, she seems to always want to control and take control of the conversation to feel better about herself.
