If a gun were put to my head and I had to decide right now, I agree with your irritation. However, he did make an interesting
point about public disrespect as a means of deterrence which deserves more thinking about. If that method looks promising after further inspection, we’d probably want
to reconsider its application to this situation, though it’s still unclear to me to what extent it applies in this case.
There’s also the consideration of total time expenditures on my part. Since the main reason I don’t respond at length to Goetz is his repeated behaviors that force me to expend large amounts of time or suffer penalties, elaborate time-consuming courtesies aren’t a solution either.
