yes, that is quite understandable. and i don't sneak up from behind folk, who a recovering from a broken leg, and yank their crutches away from them. but when someone starts to tell others that the crutch is necessary for everyone else, even those that can walk fine without one, then it's fair game, imo. otherwise one would be off remaining silent concerning the matter. in some cases, "putting it out there" can be a relatively subconscious way of testing it's integrity - it may seem to be ok in the garage - but how's the road test?
we all need various kinds of crutches but there is a point where the use of particular crutches becomes an impediment. morphine may be applicable in certain situations, but it's definitely not something that you would want to become dependent upon.
