You’re not wrong, but I feel like your response doesn’t make sense in context.
The post generally ends up stronger, because it’s more accurate
Handled vastly better by being able to reliably get answers about concerns earlier.
To the extent that the critic wants the public view to end up balanced and isn’t just trying to damage the criticizee
Assumes things are on a roughly balanced footing and unanswered criticism pushes it out of balance. If criticism is undersupplied for large orgs, making it harder makes things less balanced (but rushed or bad criticism doesn’t actually fix this, now you just have two bad things happening)
If the critic does get some things wrong despite giving the criticizee the opportunity to review and bring up additional information, either because the criticizee didn’t mention these issues or refused to engage, the community would generally see it as unacceptable for the crtiticizee to sue the critic for defamation
I’m asking the potential criticizee to provide that information earlier in the process.
