Ordinarily, I wouldn't post the nearly contentless "Agreed," but since the opposing point was made in reply to my post, I thought I should say something to show that I read and was moved by roc's point.

Any recommendations for what I should have done instead?

I downvoted both, if it helps. I also upvoted you for adding to the conversation.
