Sounds good. Until you consider every teacher is a mixture of good and bad. Including you. To play the advocate where is the line? Please provide a reference for "Paul's rule," too. I'm not sure what you are talking about.
Really though, dealing Witness Lee or any teacher is relatively is easy. Because like you said you can drop a teacher.
But mostly we were talking about the teachings and the experiences. Those are the difficult ones to sort out.
We are really talking about two things: Whether there was anything good about our experiences, and how to talk about it going forward. As I said, saying you got good out of something is not the same as recommending it. It's just citing what to you are the facts.
In general, I don't think you should ask people to act like they got nothing good out of it just because you are squeamish someone might take that as a recommendation.
