This is...a rather tired subject of conversation to say the least. If any conclusions can be made on the subject it may be that any attempt to lay down rules for proper etiquette is completely arbitrary. At the crux of polite human interaction is the compromise in which the speaker attempts to convey good will in their manner and the recipient does not suspect the worst intentions out of their actions.
