In all of that nonsense, you didn't actually present any alternative interpretation of why Mill was being discussed other than the two obvious and "pessimistic" ones. Thanks for the large red herring. Oh, and I don't work in your little corporate world where people value "constructive" feedback. I don't value it because I don't value dishonesty. Aim higher with your connection to reality.
