To be fair, users of both forums will be aware of Neils and Peter's recollections and opinions from their point of view, the truth is to be found from others conclusions. But these guys have first hand accounts, neither is right or wrong, history will come to its own conclusion as will us sideline spectators.
I see validation in both accounts and see where they are coming from. There is no right or wrong answer.
What I will say is we are in 2023 and time to live for today as we're only on the planet for a short time and we need to make as much pleasure for others as we possibly can and to forgive the past as we cannot change it, but the present and future is yet to be written. So let's write it while we can.
