The nuanced approach is to reject extremist characterizations, not embrace them.

Yeah unfortunately you're in the wrong here.

There are multiple levels of forced. It's not an on and off switch, as much as people make it out to be.

In what way am I in the wrong? I did not claim and do not believe that there is only one level of 'forced'. No one here is making it out to be that way.

Edit: Just because there is a range of accepted meanings for the word 'forced' doesn't mean that all uses of the word 'forced' are correct. Even with the most low key interpretations of the word 'forced', I don't think that this is in any way the correct word for this situation.
