You're assuming that in actual practice what you4re trying to describe and what he's describing are
different, and implying skill levels you don't have personal knowledge of.

I'm in complete agreement.

Not only is she backleading, but she's backleading *badly*. As I have always posited
that a leader should always be attentive to the responses to his (strong) invitation,
it would be ridiculous to deny that the same holds -- and much more strongly --
for the follower's suggestions.

We got enough bad leaders (at least in these parts). The last thing we need is to
"compensate" them with an equal number of bad backleaders ;).
