Please don't misunderstand what I'm saying. I'll re-iterate a couple
things:

A. I didn't say "those who didn't" or "chose not to" go, but those who
"couldn't".

But more importantly:

B: I said it *comes across* a bit disrespectful, I *didn't* say that it
actually *is* disrespectful.

Furthermore, my whole point was nothing more than to merely suggest
that *maybe* the delay should simply be somewhat less, *not* a demand
or expectation, and *not* even a suggestion that they should all be
released as soon as is technically feasable. I was very careful to
choose wordings that would not get misconstrued as such, so please
don't twist my words into insults that I never made just because you
don't agree with an idea that I merely placed on the table.
