My post lacked clarity. My apologies. My comment on opinion was based on one aspect only:It was that statement and it alone to which I referred when I wrote:Just because we are good at doing the wrong thing is no reason not to attempt to do the right thing.
"However, on that opinion of yours -- and that's what it is, an opinion, not a statement of fact -- we can continue to disagree."
Specifically, I meant that what we are good at doing is not necessarily the wrong thing -- it may be inappropriate for a specific campaign or mission but it is not "wrong" and if you or anyone views it as universally wrong, you and they will err -- badly. The real opinion issue is raised by your last clause; "...no reason not to attempt to do the right thing." What is "right" in your opinion is not necessarily either de facto or de jure right.
I added: "Don't try to change the Elephant, you'll fail. Simply better use its strength..." to once more with no snark and with good intent suggest you have good ideas but tend to gloss over things that seem minor impediments to be ignored by you but that others view as significant details that must be addressed. IOW, you have a great product but a really bad sales pitch...
