Would you attend a technical talk titled, "Why writing Scala is unethical", followed up by a technical workshop (with exercises) titled, "In case you are still unsure that writing Scala is unethical"?

People extrapolate, not always correctly.
Yes. But that doesn't mean that "more positive" is going to help this in any way at all. In fact, I have strong evidence that wishful thinking, or "pretend positivity", continues to encourage it.

It's not pretend positivity. It's not being overly antagonistic, Stating a language people use is unethical implies they are also unethical. If people feel they have been attacked as being unethical, they are going to switch off and you don't help them move on.

But it doesn't imply that at all. This has not been demonstrated. This cannot been demonstrated. This belief is itself, unethical.
