This piece might have carried some weight had it not been replete with unhelpful, including ad personam, street language (because it serves to distract from, or at least camouflage, what might otherwise have been useful writing).

What's the opposite of street language? And what is the evidence that it is more objective and beneficial to the public good? Just asking.
Good questions, thanks John. Street language, like street food, sounds way more hip than I'll ever be, so I'll take it as a compliment.
Courteous discourse remains my preference. Just answering.
