Well, I really was hoping to get some good faith feedback - even though I had a definite position - in a topic that can lapse into a more adversarial stances. To be fair, I was really happy at those who took the time to reply, and ... paraphrasing Taylor, downvoters gonna downvote. I did get at least 4 downvotes, for the record. I'll say no more of it. It's an interesting meta discussion for me, but this is off topic/being a bad guest in posting guideline adherence enough already.
