The thread title does look like an attempt at bad press due to the wording, but I think you have handled this discussion and situation well enough.I am? I have mostly stayed out of this. In fact, I regret posting it. I’m going to ask that it be removed.
The discussion seems to center on two main points that are valid to debate: the company upholding warranty period vs prioritizing customer satisfaction, and whether warranty period is long enough to be reasonable for the product.
