It isn't but it also leads to a butting of heads rather than a meeting of minds. I think what's bugged me most was that this was an explicit premise of your original thread;
We don’t judge each-other as much on TiBB so it’s okay. Let’s just get into it and lay our discretionary (or lack thereof) cards on the table."
You asked what seemed to be sincerely for a judgement-aside "warts and all" discussion of the topic and I answered in full honesty, believing that it was what was actually on offer.
But, given how the thread went and the reaction to answers that didn't sit well,
I don't think you actually meant it, and had it not been suggested in the first post that we open up and give a full honest answer, I might well have answered differently or at least more cautiously.
The result is that it feels like a trap, and you don't get a good conversation when you're lured someone into a corner.
