I think I get it... let's break this down shall we:

"
I realize that everyone wants to talk about the controversial and shocking part of the report, but a lot of people are missing the forest for the trees here.
"

"everyone wants to talk about..." This is not true but can be interpreted as an exaggerated expression to bring their point across... Ok that's fine.


"A lot of people" ... this is not you... and really not some that may appear that way now with their posts. For example Greg's post... (I'm picking on him because of the timing of his post and because I have great respect for him)... the post was indeed fixed on one point (i.e. the trees). I should add I know the robowranglers like us (and many teams) will indeed study every piece of this report and make sure that we address each point properly.

So let's just say some people... when it seems like a lot of people.

The last part... missing the forest for the trees.

The reason why I'm going through the trouble of breaking this down is because I got this feeling as well, but it is just a feeling. Basically there are posts that are applying pressure to the perpetrator and/or team, (i.e. the trees)... the forest is all the other problems not talked about as much... I'd say these are the other technical responses some of which I've been trying to say. I know someone else mentioned the idea of splitting the discussion up as well.

I know when the dust settles I will want to discuss some of the other aspects of the report such as the network capping. Right now... I feel like backing off and letting the predominant discussion carry on.
