If it's controversial, it must be wrong... or it must be right... or maybe we need to be in a balanced and fair conversation with the relevant stakeholders about it...
I'd guess that how we approach controversy can be affected by our personality or temperament. Some find controversial conversations energizing; others are drained by them.
I don't like arguments, but good conversations can help us arrive at a place of integrity. Knowing why I hold an opinion is valuable, maybe more valuable than the opinion.
