Absolutely true. And yet it can so very easily degenerate into a back-and-forth of: "Well, I didn't read it that way, because you're a bad writer"; "No, you didn't read it that way because you're a bad reader", with thev alues of "bad" being A) technically incompetent vs. B) infected with baggage that causes you to see things that aren't inherent in the material. Which is why I mainly try to stay out of it now...though obviously, I don't don't always succeed.;)
