You honestly don't think that "jumping the gun" (so to speak) before all (or even any) of the facts are in deserves to be pointed out and/or discouraged? I agree there's no need to insult, but it's hard for me to ignore rampant fear-mongering. In fact I won't really consider ignoring it. There's plenty of known atrocities to get worked up over without resorting to freaking out over perceived atrocities, or even straw-atrocities that may not ever even see the light of day.

And the fact of the matter is that the general public still doesn't have any internal details about how this new system is going to work. It may very well suck in practice... but that still won't justify getting worked up about largely invented problems based on wild-ass, premature, uninformed guesses.

Not at all... I was just amused, is all. I'm not used to having my (primarily) gut reactions so logically analysed.
