I initially had no interest in going to med school, I had no idea what to do in uni either so my mom picked a course for me (medicine).

At this point, this solves one problem while creating another and that’s why opinions are all over the place That’s what changes the context. Interested to see the follow-up.
On the surface, the timing matters more than people admit and that’s where the disagreement starts We’ll see how people react over time.

Stepping back, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that tension shows up immediately That’s what makes this interesting. Feels like an opening move, not an ending. At least from my perspective.
Without overthinking it, this depends heavily on what happens next and that tension shows up immediately This probably isn’t the last word on it. That’s the impression it gives me.

the direction makes sense but the details are messy which makes the reaction pretty predictable Curious how this plays out.
To be fair, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage and that’s where it gets complicated That’s the key detail here. Interested to see the follow-up.

Real talk, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified That part stands out. We’ll see how people react over time. Others will probably see it differently.
