I've learned enough to know that I cannot possibly explain what I believe about this dichotomy with respect to civility, and remain civil according to the standards of the site. I can't even speak its name.
Until this is cleared up, until a good clear concise rule is drafted, good people will continue to be hurt. "I know it when I see it" is hopelessly inadequate, because I just as much know when he is wrong. Feelings, although often correlated with civility, are not perfectly correlated with it.
Why don't we bring in a civility expert? Get a consultant's report?
I fail to see what is different about what she (Estella) said, and what I said about butter tarts or blocks. Can somebody explain that to me?
