Sorry, I must've forgotten that paragraph while I was replying. My understanding having read about this a couple years back is that controversy was pretty frontloaded ("originally controversial") and that the debate did, like in most any large infrastructure project, continue for years after. That is, I think drivers care and are disappointed about this but aren't losing their minds over it.

Even beside that, if every carbrain across Helsinki were coping and seething right now, I think my overall point stands that turning every victory for good into a focus on how pissed "the enemy" must surely be right now isn't at all healthy or productive.
