Again, can v must.

Just because you want something to happen differently doesn't mean it will or even that it should.
Cute that you think you're teaching me that.
Thankfully, I don't live my life just staying silent about things that I think are wrong because they may not change or because some people don't agree with me. What a pathetic existence that would be. I couldn't imagine being upset that my writing was being displayed along crap, but simply accepting that as an unchangeable fate because some guy named Randy says it's so. I've gone up against folks a lot more powerful than the king of the deceptive miles marketing blogs; sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.

(And there's a complex regulatory scheme here, involving both the FTC, CFPB, and state consumer laws. Plus I've been quite explicit and referred to ethical standards, which are not the same as legal standards. )
