There's nothing caustic about self-censoring when your view isn't worth the headaches it might give others. In terms of development, you have to respect the views of your teammates and the effect of your position on overall workflow.

Edit: for clarity, there's basically one guy here who's made it some sort of vendetta to object to the entire concept of a "battle," as though using that word for a disagreement is the issue. There's no such thing as a "perfect" team, but it seems his idea of that involves consensus.

Consensus is an abstract, reality is defined by multiple viewpoints.
