The only category you seem to recognize is whether or not someone has real-world experience. There are legitimately negative people in this field who hurt others at their own expense, or for no reason, every day. This isn't about being nicey-nice when dismissing a bad idea.
It isn't a saving grace if someone bullies you 'upfront' on a daily basis - or if they (like you and almost every man in this industry) assume they are right and have more real-world experience and are geniuses.
