> I don't need someone to show me how to choose.

I am not trying to tell you or show you *how* to choose, I am trying to tell you or show you that it is in fact a matter of choice.

You have the choice, we all do.
I don't care *what* people choose.
I care how people feel as a consequence of their choice.
I am trying to show you that there are options.

>My feelings are not hurt, I'm angry, and I'm disappointed.

Hmm. I would consider anger and disappointment to be painful feelings. Feelings that are unpleasant anyways.

I don't care whether people want small boards or not. I don't care whether there are small boards or not.

I do care about how people feel about whether small boards happen or not.

But you choose to feel a certain way as a result of the way you choose to view small boards.

Your issue.
But I wish people weren't so upset / hurt / disappointed / whatever about this.
I wish people wouldn't question Dr Bob's motives about this. Because I can see things both ways. I can see how one could be well intentioned and want small boards. I can see how one could be well intentioned and not want small boards.

I just wish people weren't so upset about this...
