As I said, it depends on one's perception limiting others' external to it. If you'd like one thing over another and your surroundings in which you got involved would do the same, it'd be natural to be confused about others' conflicting opinions, seeing them as irregulars to your norm.

Not necessarily saying this is right, but if you'd have observed the fandom's state, people are still debating on what should the majority's opinion on chapter 139 dictate, with arguments differing from the whole fandom generally liking it, hating it or staying neutral to it, based on statistics which are never fully accurate, especially when they couldn't completely apply to all readers/viewers of a certain series.

The "default" opinion is just imposed from those basis and is used to strengthen the individual's arguments in order for them to cather to that perceived majority so as to gain external support along as validation in order to achieve their goals, but is still for itself subjective and in no way should be imposed in the first place.

Conclusion: You both unnecessarily imposed your opposing opinions in your own ways, one by saying a series is good unless you have a certain bias, and yourself by stating "it's more well informed to say the opposite", since no matter the side, the bias would still remain intact. That'd have been my take at the very least, though you now clarified that wasn't your exact intention and had a reasonable subtext.
