And now in typical style, this is descending from discussion and into flamebait.

That's quite enough, Lurker -- I know you're eager to leap to the
attack.  Why not use some of that boundless energy on more
constructive criticisms instead of trying to start another fight?
Seriously -- three responses, and all of them trying to engage other
members in argument instead of really talking about the story you're
denying better feedback?

Focus, please.  Discussion is welcome, but it's best if it's relevant
to the topic at hand -- and moreso than petty sniping.  It's too early
in the morning to have to find an admin hat.

Who would really like to have seen 1 reasonable C&C over the fic
instead of the war over fanboy japanese.

Yare, yare.
