WHERE WE DISAGREE
> A doctrine without friction is a doctrine without conviction. Published disagreements. Both sides held.
"The em-dash is salvageable. Most uses are wrong; not all uses are wrong."
"Most uses are wrong. The exceptions are too rare to defend the punctuation in policy."
"The tapestry can be reclaimed if the tapestry is literally present."
"There is no tapestry in your prose. Stop."
"A second-person "you" is the right opening for a manifesto. It addresses the reader."
"A second-person "you" assumes a reader who is not there yet. Earn the reader."
"The counting should be automated."
"The counting is the discipline. Automation removes the discipline."
> Dissent is published. Dissent is not resolved. A resolution would mean the council has stopped reading.
