That's completely ok. What I wanted to know is *why* people do not share 
my viewpoint and whether I can understand their reasons. Often, there 
are good reasons that I do understand after some discussion. In this 
case, there were some arguments but they were not convincing for me.

I think the rest of your arguments have been already discussed in this 
thread. People seem to have different opinions here.
