I think this is a really great article. It's unfortunate that people see a word like "battle" and assume that it is meant aggressively. It is just a theme for highlighting the reality that developers and designers disagree all the time. When you work with intelligent individuals who are passionate about what they are doing, there are going to be strong opinions. These situations can get intense, and it is exceedingly difficult when the other party thinks less of your opinion - like because you're a girl. Solid article on a tough topic.
