As you say - mileage and direction may vary.

I find Wilber good for keeping me awake into the wee hours of morn, while
the fog around K. seems like a veritible pea-souper, to me.

That doesn't mean I particularly like Wilber's approach, or dislike K's, in
fact the opposite is more like it. It just goes to show that perceptions,
tastes and attitudes are tricky.
