From the outside, the way this is presented changes how it lands That part stands out. This probably isn’t the last word on it. At least from my perspective.

From where I sit, this comes across more reactive than planned and that’s what people are responding to That part stands out. We’ll see how people react over time. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.

Putting bias aside, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here which is why this is getting picked apart Curious how this plays out. That’s the impression it gives me.

At this point, the main issue seems to be how this is handled That’s what changes the context. This could age very differently in a week.
