I pretty much disagree. But even if you aren't pissing off all 19 other people in a wsg match, you're probably pissing off at least the 10 on the other side. You can cut this number down further with various situations, but you're still pissing off a good 30-35%% mininum with every time a twink enters a WSG match.
I'd be willing to settle on an agreement of 30-35%, though my number includes the other side's twinks as well(since it's my mission when I queue to **** off DD twinks on the other side).
The reason I believe I don't irritate the people on my side all that much is because I often see the same vocal people who ***** about the other side's twinks make comments about how awesome it is having me on their side. This is also a main source of my belief that many who hate twinks(and even the majority) hate the fact that they have to fight the other side's twinks, not so much hate for twinks on their side.
That isn't to say they wouldn't gladly give up their side's twinks if it meant no twinks on the other side, but that's not the point I'm trying to make.
I feel that you overestimate the average player's intelligence/sense of fairness/etc and I'm sure you feel I underestimate them.
That, more than anything, IMO, is where we truly differ...or at least the biggest source in our difference of opinion on the numbers.
Edit: Added a little bit to the last line for clarity.
