I get that. I'm not stupid and you've been very clear across two threads.
What I'm saying is I'd struggle to be convinced by a POV that went against everything I knew about people and their actions ( and in this example, in my experience, a rational mind rarely carries out such an act. They might feel rational - an outside observer rarely feels it is, IN MY EXPERIENCE.) If unconvinced I'd suspect the author was leading it and not the pov.
I hope that's clear enough: the pov isn't the problem if I believe it, but it is if I don't.
Anyway, I don't intend to get into a tit-for-tat about it. I've said my (valid) thoughts about the thread's premise.
Well of course the author is leading it. But ascribing the views of the PoV to the author just because the PoV is 'unconvincing' (which seems synonymous with 'badly written') does not seem reasonable behaviour to me.
