I agree with you OP, there are too much superstition and paranoia around the search engine community. It's just ignorance - at least you're trying to clear some of them up as you can see some are not receptive and that's on them. People like to blame what they don't understand, on something else. They reach for what makes sense to them. Like google needs your sites to be in the same account to find out about one's shitty SEO practices.
