Largely I was responding to Mr. Littrell's comment that "...a doctor...would have a considerably more informed view than most other participants in the debate".
For what it's worth, I thought your writing was extremely cogent and insightful. Thank you so much for sharing it here. Ironically I wondered over to the comments page to ask you if you are familiar with Amy Wax? I recently heard her interviewed on the Accad and Koka report and found her analysis relevant to your own.
