I'm not getting into it with you, Jeff. But it is not true that "everyone" got it - there were a good many people that did not seem to see the difference. I understand what you are saying - I get it - I'm just saying that not everyone falls into the category of "got it but still didn't like it".
And I went back and edited it for exactly that reason, as explained. Because it was clear it offended people regardless of intent. And because I didn't want to be anything like Marshall. Not sure how that translates into "can't appreciate that sometimes words offend even if no harm is intended".
