Don't assume an agenda, you also had a very positive spin on tech fibers in another thread yesterday [0], perhaps OP felt like we could benefit from an opposing view.

If anything out of scale alone the collective of cotton/wool/linen producers will likely have a lot less lobbying power than the industry around petro-chemical fibers.
