First of all
to you for trying to pick up gold from thrash.
The first thing that comes to my mind is that now the bd supporters will get more realistic of our team's capability and won't add them with extra pressure(if they really does get any!).
I personally do not support the idea of learning by getting doomed. We should better be smart enough to learn the consequences and take action rather than to taste the bitter truth at first. Your last 2 points remind me of this
