Nate doesn't like the Aura. He is entitled to his opinion, and its not like I haven't had strong opinions about someone or something after prolonged discussions that have appeared on MR.

It's human to develop a bias I suppose--look at the feelings that are directed toward Apple or Google, etc. There are fans and there are people who hate a particular company or product line. Neither POV is always completely rational.
