Well, WGC has a real talent for posting things that may have some merit, if presented well, and with due concern for the sensibilities of many of the people who are likely to read it.
A number of times he's gotten slammed and I've secretly felt that his position, if presented with more care, could have had a much more sympathetic response.
I think he unconsciously wants to have to duck ripe tomatoes and flung cow patties.
That may be part of
his hidden agenda.
Just my guess.
(Of course, we all have hidden agendas to some degree, as you implicitly imply yourself, above.)
