I think I had a slightly-not-as-great time with it (I respected it more than I enjoyed it) because it felt like this was too talky of an episode, too monologuey. There's a lot of great ideas in it, but it felt like the pacing was dragged down by a lot of pontificating, where the other person in a dialogue scene was only there to silently absorb these Big Ideas. I just didn't love how much it felt like it was The Writer telling me these things, rather than the characters.

Absolutely not, opinions need to be formed immediately and defended until death. I did not come to the internet to be told to wait until all the facts are in!
