> Honestly: are you a bit argumentative?

Not at all. I pick my battles. Some things are worth fighting for, others can be ignored. Not all conflict is bad. Every manager reading this should google "form norm storm perform"

Any senior dev worth their salt should have, and be allowed to have a "storm". We all have our experience, and the paths we followed to get that experience. If a companty thinks your experience and path is useless to them, why would they hire you in the first place?
