Declan,
You're right, calling someone "passive aggressive" isn't a neutral observation. No matter how politely put - or even true - it's an accusation: you are "attacking" me.
I like the term myself. I use it because I'd rather label someone than actually think. No really, that's what I do most of the time - sadly.
You're right about the honesty question. Telling someone they are "passive aggressive" is like saying that they aren't honest about their behavior - and, worse, don't even know about it. (or why do we need to tell them?)
I think Linkadge aggressively investigates known and potential problems with medications period. Nothing passive or dishonest about it. I think it's great.
