The quoted post is talking about the benefits of non action(are more than the implicit cost) where I think you are saying the costs of the action are more than the benefits.

These seem really similar. Did you mean to say the same thing?

I interpreted the comment I replied to as having two bins. Those who oppose and those who support.

My comment was intended to argue that there are three bins. Oppose, support, and those who don't want to fight either way.

Yes, but spun in such a way as to frame not interfering with the status quo as the middle position to opposing it and furthering it. (Just to be clear no deliberate response is neutral here)
