Master of blunt indeed. I'll admit you're exactly right--the active ingredient in those two differing styles is the same. But it all boils down to a difference in philosophy. There's something to be said for being blunt and never pulling a punch. There's also something to be said for trying to be a peace maker. At the end of the day, the ideal mix is somewhere in between. I guess I just find always jumping to the 'full-contact sport' mentality distasteful.
