it was hyperbole. to help illustrate an example. for proving a point.

the irony of the snowflake metaphor is that we are all unique. to help illustrate an example. for proving a point.

i realize this. and, if it quiets down the person it's suggested to, that's a win for the person suggesting it if they don't have to listen to a bullhorner all the time. you can use the knowledge in the book for whatever means and manipulations you feel like applying it toward, but the material has been proven instrumental for eliciting certain behaviors and attitudes.
at the very least, it may provide understanding for somebody who gets attacked for his attitude frequently. i especially enjoy his constant claims that this forum is a cesspool, with posts stating such in the same exact thread he started as personal outcry concerning his career and life. i almost have to believe he's just secretly joking with all the vitriol.
