    Neutral party here, I read it naturally as a supplement to your comment, not an opposition. I don’t detect an argumentative tone personally.

      You’re welcome to your opinion but these phrases

      I feel like the opening sentences explained the reasoning behind the article sufficiently,

      They’re not the only ones pointing this out, either.

      are oppositional in tone.

          I didn’t ask you. I didn’t ask the other neutral guy either. Not my issue that you have a problem with me suggesting the original respondent check his phrasing to make his intention clear, or pointing out the specific phrases that make it unclear.
