PC I agree with your conclusions. I believe that being 'civil' is good for others and for ourselves. Good for others because it helps avoid getting a defensive reaction to what we say. Good for ourselves because I believe that making a real I-statement is more truthful than just sharing the accusatory thoughts we have. Our own feelings and reactions are underneath those accusatory thoughts, so a little work to notice them and share them is beneficial for our own self-understanding.
