I agree with your sentiment. The style you chose to express it makes it hard to read. It seems unnecessarily defensive, sort of like someone poking me in the chest to make a point about something that I don’t feel emotional about.
- young_unixer 5y agoThis defensive tone is one of the few ways I have found to make myself understood clearly without overthinking my prose. When I write in more "narrative" tone, it's hard for me to make sure that my grammar is right, and that I'm making myself understood. In fact, I always try to write my comments in narrative form first, but many times the grammar comes out awkward, so I scrap that and write in a more dialogical form. If you have any recommendations on how to improve this, they're welcome.
