Agreed. 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.
