I completely agree with you except that I think that politics is important and not working for a defense contractor is insufficient. Everything I am pointing out is that there are shortcomings in RMS' model that can't be applied to everyone. I am not a "fan" of RMS, either. I am not a "fan" of anyone.

Wait, you completely agree, except you don't.

If you do agree with parent then you are simply communicating differences in what is worth what.

You then point out what you see to be RMS shortcomings, based again on disagreement with parent comment.

Don't get me wrong, all that is OK, just nowhere close to complete agreement to the parent comment.

Which is it?
