What about those here who maybe want to discuss this? Shouldn't they be entitled to it?

If that is the case, then it certainly is not because of a general "Everyone is entitled to discuss whatever they want here" principle, as such a principle does not exist. The site's purpose is rationality, and anything that serves that goal is allowed, and anything that does not is suspect.

Did you even read the OP? He specifically mentioned the subject of mastering interpersonal relationships and I was answering to that.
