If you read the comments
in context, there's actually some very sage advice in those two HT threads (including from yourself

The thread starters weren't advocated 'launching into cr*p conditions because you've always got a get-out'. They were discussing the options IF conditions did deteriorate more than forecast. (And, yes, we've all been there.) The fact that the 'CAA will prosecute if you land due to wx' myth was debunked actually added to the flight safety issues.

What a load of garbage.
If you were so worried about the posters' attitudes, why didn't you just post again in the actual thread rather than sensationalise it over here?
