I'm not saying they got it right. Just that there may be another explanation for the specific line that was being criticized as "arrogant". That struck a chord with me because of how often I get accused of arrogance. I don't think I am arrogant. If you really are dramatically better at something than other people, owning that fact is a socially uncomfortable but somewhat unavoidable part of life. (If you try to say "no, no, I'm nothing special" when you really are that much better, that gets called "false modesty" and people heap flack on you for that as well. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.)
