you still choose not to support it, why would someone persist in attempting to try and make you see the ‘value in the change’? You’ve already said you see it as ‘switching meaningless with meaningless’, thereby dismissing those who said they feel it is exclusionary, and as such, you ARE part of the problem. Furthermore, I find yours and others attitude on this incredibly perplexing, far more so than those actively opposed to any change. If everyone else in my house wanted to paint the living room blue because they didn’t like the cream colour it was now, and I was completely neutral to the blue colour as I was to the cream, they were prepared to do it and pay for it themselves to the same standard it is now, and I had no inkling to paint the room myself and it wouldn’t inconvenience me in any way whatsoever, why would I spend any time questioning or criticising their decision to want to paint the room blue, or why they don’t like the cream? In fact, if it would make others in the house happy to paint the room blue and was cost neutral to me in every way, why would I not support it? It makes me question if those that say they don’t have an opinion either way are being disingenuous.
