(Also, I wish people didn’t write things like your fourth paragraph. “I’m sorry you took offence at what I said.” “This is all my fault: I should never have thought I could trust you.” “I handled this badly—I hadn’t appreciated how limited your understanding is.” Bleh.)
Uh, yeah. Oops. I didn’t mean it to come out that way, but rereading it it really does. Sorry about that.
I meant it honestly as “I misread the context. Mea culpa.”
I also feel some snark toward rationalist culture that slips in sideways. It’s obvious that’s what happened here. That’s an unkindness that really doesn’t belong there.

Thanks for naming it.
