I didn't intend to be controversial when I posted my comment. To not risk inflaming matters further I'll refrain from commenting on your points.
(I cannot recall having so many down-votes in such quick succession on HN previously. Although unintended, I've clearly struck a nerve or two.)
- josefresco 3y agoAgreed. While you were downvoted, the quality of replies (not mine) is exceptional and clearly generated a lot discussion. I'd call that a win for HN even though your post currently has negative votes. I hesitated before publishing my reply as it isn't my normal sort of HN post. I guess this just touched a nerve personally.

- rickydroll 3y agoYou asked essential questions and triggered a helpful discussion. Think of breaking eggs to make an omelet situation. Your downvotes show you irritated the right people. :-) +1 from me.
