That does sound somewhat puzzling.
The wide range of sensitivities and levels of English in the
community mean that there is plenty of opportunity for words
to be mis-understood and people to take offence at words
considered by others to be totally harmless.
All one can do is assume the best of others intentions.
Taking communications off-list is certainly not the answer -
even the suspicion of off-list decision-making is enough to
worry some people.

No, but you did explain yourself, which is almost as good :-)
BTW - are you around on IRC any more?
