I'm not sure you read what I thought "should be said" correctly-- my comment agrees with this point.

    (not the person who you replied to) I thought your comment was well-reasoned and easy to understand. I had those feelings about it but didn't have the words to describe it. It's kind of like putting crime statistics under an article about a murderer who is black because you're expecting racism. Kinda. Your breakdown was more accurate.
