Feedback welcome! Here's the TL;DR list

Some of the replies here are a bit disheartening, reflexively dismissing this list, the need for it, and the validity of the experiences behind it.

It's unsurprising, sadly. Folks are stuck in their bubbles often and don't see the harm they cause.

They wrap it up in fancy words or reasoning sadly, but the reasons are always the same basically: They don't want to do the work.
