JR doesn't use language like, "for the most part, all things being equal".

I'm not hung up on anything. As I said, just curious whether there was a variety of opinion on the issue. I don't know why you two are having a problem accepting that, but let's not argue about it any longer. This has gone way beyond the scope of what I started.

Fair enough I guess...wouldn't you say that the near universal opinion you've received on this play should satisfy your curiosity as to whether there are any dissenting opinions?
