Without Authors United, for instance, we could not have enjoyed Joe Konrath's fisking of the various letters and articles.

Oh, I don't disagree. I was merely poining out that "everyone being happy for everyone else" isn't really relevant at all to believing (or respecting) an article author who hasn't done their homework (or is merely regurgitating propaganda).
I'm perfectly capable of being happy for all walks of readers AND believing this article is pure bull spit simultaneously.
Being happy that ebooks and pbooks will very likely be sharing healthy portions of the publishing market for a long, long time does not, in any way, obligate me to accept shoddy logic, or propagandist nonsense.
