I'm not sure why it's more LH if it impacts the bottom line. LH is about
saying something negative. Perhaps there is a second issue of hezeq one
could ask about.

But if it's to save the readers' money because the councelor didn't provide
value, one is balancing damage done to one vs helping others decide whether
or not to risk money. It's not single-sided.

Tir'u baTov!
