And you may choose to weigh that portion of his job heavily enough to drag his entire grade down, which is your prerogative. I did not do that for reasons which I tried to articulate above and I do not think it's because of some blind love of UD (red and blue glasses). I feel like I am a pretty objective assessor of the program, but what I determine the success to be (and what I personally get out of it) may be completely different than the criterion you use, but no less valid.

Some people choose to emphasize the negative and downplay the positive with BG and emphasize the positive and downplay the negative with OP. I guess that is their prerogative.
