Stallman could probably use looking at the whole picture more often,
but still focusing on his ultimate goal. Unfortunately, he can be
very tactless and inconsiderate of people's feelings. Plus, in his
speeches, he tends to use emotional arguments that don't work very
well. It's a pity, since he uses reason so much better in his essays.
