I've tried (and failed) at a thoughtful response a few times now, so I think I need to at least accept that yeah, I'm in the extreme minority in not preferring convenience over autonomy.

Good luck with this conversation, I don't think I have anything else to contribute, I think I'm on a different world than the prevailing opinions on this stuff...but such is life. Better than an echo chamber that's for sure.
