not sure what the difference is, royal society vs not. According to news reports they face expulsion from the royal society.

How is that not being cancelled?

I will further note that understanding the royal society vs university distinction here is pretty important, but it seems that you've already made up your mind.

I won't be responding again here, thanks.

That doesn’t seem fair, I’ve not made up my mind. I just want to understand why you think people forming a panel to remove you from the royal society of New Zealand because you published a polite letter does not constitute cancelling.

Perhaps there’s something I’m missing?
