Fine, so you didn't like the formatting, and you even felt that it overshadowed any point be it good or bad.

Well the point was good. The point is still good, and while expressing an objection to the formatting is understandable, those who did so were callous.

I will gladly abide by the objections to the formatting, but I would make a suggestion to those who objected: Be more positive. Life is not worth being callous.
