> Strong opinion: Makes scheduling collaborative instead of a nuisance.

I’m not sure how this is a strong opinion. Are there really a lot of people that prefer to schedule things with inconvenience?

> Strong opinion: We provide cleanly designed forms that are easy to use for people who build digital products.

Does anyone want messy and difficult to use forms?

Here’s my strong opinion: the author’s examples don’t help to make an argument as to why opinionated products breed passionate customers.

They're like business strategies that boil down to "our strategy is to win". An opinionated product and an actual business strategy involve very deliberate decisions about what gets left on the table.

Yeah, that’s just benign statements that act as a veil to an actually strong opinion: “I know what a nuisance looks like, and you don’t.”

Fair points! For the second one, the point was actually they didn't have strong enough opinions so they are going to try strengthening them.

That being said you make a good argument. Will try and add in more detail to each example!
