Here's the beef;

You :  Since HCD believes that tool should adapt to user
Me : Hmm, I do a lot of HCD, and I don't believe in what you just said

And a bit more over here :

You : No wonder you deny the HCD basic belief of adapting to user.

Now let me put this in a very clear way : I do not believe that HCD is
about tools adapting to users *because* there is no manual that states
"HCD basic belief is tools adapting to user";

On what "authority" can you claim what HCD is and is not about? My
assertion, being a HCD guy, is that HCD is quite fuzzy on this very
issue. Where does yours come from?

See? I'm not disputing what *you* do when you proclaim HCD, I'm
disputing what you claim is what HCD has as a basic belief. HCD is the
sum of many things, more than your authority alone.
