I'm not opposed to paying some attention to decorum, but logic comes first, otherwise, you won't have a leg to stand on.
Reasonable minds can differ on this subject. I think decorum must come first. We must first stop 'shouting' before logic may be heard.
Easily disproved. You can shout a logical proposition/exposition or you can whisper it, it's just as clear and relevant (if it's really logical) either way. Decorum, on the other hand, is somewhat nebulous, which I suppose is attractive to some.... If it doesn't "feel" good to some subscribers, they'll ignore it, which must be your point, eh?
