I haven't read the post in question, but I do know it's caused a lot of negative response which is unusual for your posts. Perhaps what you said hit a nerve or didn't leave room for other people's ideas.

I suspect your professional training has narrowed your outlook somewhat as there are many, many naturally introverted people who are not damaged in any way. Your writing seems to exclude this possiblility and your edits have left the post worse than when it started.

That way it leaves room for other peoples experiences and opinions.
Your posts are well thought out, just sometimes people experiences are different so it's good to phrase it as one of many explanations rather than a scientific fact.

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

Earthworks are the skeleton; the plants and animals flesh out the design.
Here’s good advice for practice: go into partnership with nature; she does more than half the work and asks none of the fee. – Martin H. Fischer

Suppose you write a post in the cider press. 40 staff members will read it. Let's suppose that 20 of those people strongly agree with you - those people find your post to be "nice" and move along. A few might even give you their apple for the day. But the other 20 read it and they strongly disagree with you - and connected to that, your post does NOT look nice. It seems to have eight violations of the publishing standards. Further, it would be great if you no longer had enough apples to be able to post to the cider press - after all, you clearly do NOT have what it takes to "be nice." Each of the 20 give you several apple cores.
Anything you post will be viewed by 40 moderators. So if even one of the 40 think it either crossed a line or came too close to a line - it will be removed. A lot of the staff reviews are about stuff like that. And the other staff will say "I would have left it, but I can see why you removed it." And so it remains removed.
