Once again, HN surprises me with its open-mindedness. If you read this and feel strong emotional disagreement, one way to manage that emotion productively is to imagine yourself in the room with the speaker, and try to express your perspective in the way you'd find most likely to convince. Another way to say that: the way to productively disagree is to talk to your opponent, not at your opponent.
