I wrote it, and the specific perspective that I wrote it from is a matter of published record. What more do you want?

Well, either one of the following things must be true:

- I am misremembering the past

- The published record misrepresents the past

- The motivations at the time were not visible to the community (i.e. the published record is correct and I am not misremembering but that's because the user community never saw it)

I suppose the last one is really the most likely.
