I’d say it’s straight forward. While I may not think it diminishes it, you may. We hold different opinions. Mine based on my intent. Yours based on your interpretation as a 3rd party.
As for the latter, are personal gain and fulfilling a promise mutually exclusive? I’d say no, and I’ve gone as far as suggest the desire to fulfill the promise is based on a desire for personal gain and not a desire to benefit the nation.
