He didn’t say should, he said ‘he will’. This is a distinction that is sometimes overlooked. Even though there was a clear should claim regarding the the practice of expressing offence.
Oops. I actually deleted the ‘good point’ because in this context there were multiple different levels of potential exhortation, normative assertion, statement of intended response and normative assertion regarding how other people should respond that could have been mixed and matched. I thought technical comments on the difference on “should be” and “I will” may have just been confusing.

No problem. I’ll just delete my compliment. ;)
Bother. I like being complimented! :)
Well then, let me know the next time you delete one of your comments, and I will compliment it.
