Yes I agree that is definitely bad optics.
I get it. Other people are worse than me, so I have no responsibility and do not have to change anything.
Same thing my kids say about their scholastic results. Very appealing, I get it.
Unfortunately it is not very constructive or responsible. It means only the very worst person has to do something while the other 8b of us can point fingers and sit back.
