After the above sentence, the rest of your message doesn't bear responding
to. Save for this one:

You started an unrelated thread to lob criticism of the VCM that you've
already made at least twice in private conversations between you,
Patrick, and I, that we adequately covered. To choose to bring it up yet
again in a public forum is insulting and tells me that your argument is
more about wanting to feed your own ego. If you don't want to use the
VCM then fine, don't use it. If you don't like the policies then fine,
don't use it. If, after all the time we've taken (at this point wasted)
to explain why our policies are such--and even modifying them in some
cases where you made a good point, you are still not satisfied, then that
tells me you have absolutely no business sense and are arguing for the
sake of arguing. The rest of your message proves this to me.
