    This is a fascinating article. Thanks for writing it.

    I was told off by saying disappoint is NOT the opposite of appoint, but after reading it I can argue my point that in some ways it is.

    Your explanation is mindblowing. Thanks for explaining the etymology – is that the right term – of disappoint. Love the way you did it.
