Would you say there is a use for imagery, or should it never be applied because there is a risk of someone, somewhere, becoming reliant on it?

I think her point is you can ask for information and be curious without assuming that pity and "Oh I'm so sorry for your lot in life" are appropriate. How curious are you really if you've already assumed all that?

I do think that kind of non-thanks is very different from what the article is talking about though. One is asking you to do something, and the other isn't. The only thing they have in common is the literal word "Thanks".

You seem to be taking a very hostile stance against what, a detailed and researched article about a project you don't deem worthy enough for your interest?
