I love when people are confident in their judgements. Especially when it comes to style and taste, it's great to see people drive a stake in the sand, and do so with emphasis. It feels almost, I don't know, liberating perhaps.

> What did they do to earn the right to say "I don't like this color"?

Everyone has this right. The author just claimed it.

lol they aren't randos. One is a long-time culture writer and interviewer with a solid reputation and bylines everywhere. The other is an industrial designer for apple and used to be literally a color forecaster for a major fashion brand.

Neither of those earns any particular confidence from me.

So what else is new? There's people on here second-guessing expert authors about every damn topic from science to the economy.
