With all due respect, Merriment...
I've been pretty much in your corner all along in this debate. But pulling out the PhD by no means indicates that your perspective may be sharper than someone else's. :)
It merely means that you've done your homework. (And commendably so).
Ya know... Here in the U.S., we who have degrees have a saying about what the abbreviations of said degrees might be taken to stand for. Just so's we don't start thinking too highly of ourselves. :)
BS = Bull Shit
MS = More Shit (Hey, that's mine!)
PhD = Piled High and Deep
