This was the statement made...

"There are good reasons for staining. Nearly all are a combination of
either cheap timber or ignorant clients. If you're not constrained in
this way then there's no excuse for doing it as Norm does - taking
perfectly fine timber and ruining it."

Maybe straddling the border between opinion and arrogance.

Then again, we're talking about arrogance like it's a bad thing ;-)


Okay, I was looking (upthread) at a different (similar) statement--one
not as strongly worded.

I still think it's a strong opinion, not arrogance. I have no qualms
with strong opinions if someone can back them up. Mind you, matters of
taste seem like the most pointless topic in which to do this...
