Alternative Customer Translation:
"Hey, this guy is refreshingly honest. He doesn't pretend to have extensive
industry experience as a 14yo hacker. He is honest enough to share his real
experiences with me. He is trustworthy. He doesn't hide behind wanky spin. I
trust him because he doesn't rely on tired old cliches to woo my business."
