We are different people, and we approach problems and disagreements differently. I am almost never the type to strong-arm my preference; I'd rather listen to other arguments and look at data, which is why I proposed the experiments I mentioned here. As for you and Junio not being shy, as you put it, I found most of the discussion offputting, and the tone used absolutely contributed to me finding other things to work on instead of coming back to this minefield sooner.
