You were trying to frame the discussion in terms of people
who, no longer finding the project meets their principles, are taking
the path of leaving the project, as being childish. It is a nice way
of trashing your opposition in a debate; I merely turned the frame
around. How does it feel being framed?
So, the next time, do not frame discussions by characterizing
the other persons actions quite so negatively. I don't think it helps
dialogue.
