Well, technically it is not personal, but my immediate (mental) response
if I were Bob would be "And you're full of shit as always, Jane!" which
certainly is a personal attack. Bob would have good reason to think
Jane was trying to pick a fight with him.
Perhaps the word "constructive" should have been used somewhere.
The list has been pretty constructive lately anyway, much better
than it used to be.
