By exaggerating the example and moving out of shared constructs I was trying to get wegfaw... to see how it is to be "annoyingly sensitive". That even though "hit by a bus" is "well-understood", it could still invoke very graphic memories if for example someone actually has lost someone in a bus accident. Sometimes words are not just words.

But i could imagine someone who states that it's his "right" to be as irreverent as he likes to whomever he wants to is not open to the concept of other people's perspective.

And just to be clear, I wasn't saying that you should use my example instead. :D

I am open to other perspectives, but that does not mean I must endorse all of them.

If it makes you feel any better I have given your perspective what I consider to be a fair consideration.

It just happens to violate my reward function.

Well that's all you can do and in that case I misjudged you, sorry about that.
