Neither am I offended by those questions of qualification.

I disagree that appropriate empathy requires direct experience but a lot of people disagree with me on that ("how can George Bush effectively set policy when he doesn't know how much a gallong of milk costs" was, if I recall, a real world example) and to raise the issue is neither outrageous nor, in my view, particularly controversial.
