I also feel that too many assumptions are not helpful
Completely agree with you that wording things carefully and correctly is vitally important.
''Victim blaming'' (even if it might not be intentional) is harmful and the opposite of ''intelligent'' and ''strong''... imho.
Thank you for your honest feedback, I appreciate it. I hope you keep posting.
My best to you
