Nah, I wouldn't call this an ad hominem, that's too fancy. Your twatty and toxic holier-than-thou attitude makes perusing the forum a completely unpleasant experience.
What you would call something, doesn't change what it is.

...bile and vitriol
Please desist from projecting these qualities where they do not exist.

I'm not saying we should all be smiles and kudos, but throwing "career nadir" so casually is a shitty thing to do.
How do you know what is thrown around "casually" or not? The Nightlife/Release time-period is often regarded, both by fans and critics, as well as commercially, as a low point. From the Pop Art singles onwards, there was a renaissance through to Electric. After that it was "more of the same, just not quite as good or not quite as creative", and as pointed out above, that applies not just to the Stuart Price albums, but possibly also to recent concerts too (by all accounts, I haven't seen them).
If that is how we see it, should we pretend otherwise?
Besides, they've had a career nadir previously and come out the other side with renewed creativity... I haven't given up on them doing so again. If I had, I wouldn't be here.
Again, please desist from the projection. I have no objection to anyone white-knighting in order to protect the feelings of the inner sanctum, but I believe whilst doing so in this community, it would be best to do so in a manner that complies with the rules of this community.
Kind regards.
Retro.
