I think it's simply for the same reason people find Chris McCandless [0] polarizing. Communities don't like the media glorifying the grossly inexperienced among them. In this case, it happens to be the cross-ocean sailing communit

Your questions are all assuming you are already correct. This won't be a productive conversation if you keep trying to start from there when I've already pointed out how you were originally wrong. Additionally, anti-cyberbullying
