My $0.02: though I agree with almost all of your post (i.e.: addressing
ideas, not people; responding to issues objectively etc.) I personally find
no reason *not* to be polite. I can't think of any conversations or
correspondances I have had which have suffered as a result of inherent
politeness. Come to think of it, most correspondances have been enhanced
by politeness, in my opinion; (but that *is*, after all, just my
opinion...criticize at will).
