we are at cross purposes.  I am complaining about a language usage.  When you say “both camps support” you imply (a) that there are only two camps, and everyone is a member of one or other and (b) that they have reached agreement — and therefore we are done. Perhaps you don’t mean it, but it’s a technique some people use to try to give the appearance of an agreement, and given the sensitive nature of the subject, I’d prefer you not do that.

If you say “there was support for the position from several camps”, or somesuch, that would be fine. That leaves room for people to say that they dissent, that’s all.

Got it?
