I can't help you there, simply because I'm not you and you're not me. I just know it made every bit of sense in my head, at least when I wrote it. But maybe I can clarify a few things:

To me it's rather a given that us having the same features as you is desired by default. This should not need saying nor asking for.
Having said that, I see no need to address your next paragraph (gives same answer) and will skip ahead a bit.

That in turn makes me wonder why offer this faux-pas "choice" in the first place if, as you're suggesting here, one really has no real choice due to the vast gap and less than effective attempts at providing equal options (i.e. a real choice between the two). I maintain that once they did decide to go down our road too, they cannot be surprised when they're then expected to actually commit. If they're finding it less than worth it, I say shut it down, stick to the safer road and drop the pretence of choice. I most certainly wouldn't be the one who moans over lacking salt for the hard boiled egg when there's no egg on offer in the first place. That would indeed be "illogical".

You presume I walked into this section of the forum intentionally. I did not, I came here from the Front Page of PG Music, which also means this "Tip" was rather literally staring me in the face. I most certainly did not purposely pick this forum to barge in & wreak havoc, or what have you. I actually didn't even know what particular section I was in until you told me, as I came here straight from the front page, like I say. Once you're inside a thread, you don't see which part of it you're in until you leave the thread to the Index.
Then again, whining about the inferiority issue in the designated Mac section is also quite the "preaching to the converted" thing to do anyway, for everyone in there already knows (and agrees). It's in the 1st Class section where the awareness must be raised, for that's where the power of change lies.

A part of me almost went "Did he just give me the I-know-how-you-feel treatment", but deep breath and I'll just be glad that's one more of the 1st Class awareness raised. Thank you for the gesture.
Hopefully I've somewhat made my post slightly less "illogical".

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should!
