I'm sorry that I read the assertions that you should always skip TDD and that it's proponents are all members of a wacky cult as calling TDD harmful.

Clearly you intended to have the nuanced view that sometimes TDD is ok and sometimes you shouldn't use it. I guess I mistakenly read the author to say that when in fact you were the one with this point of view all along. My mistake.

I'm not sure how this is still unclear. Something having no benefit does not mean it is harmful. My pointing out that TDD has no benefits does not imply that I think it is harmful.
