I completely get what you mean about the conjecture, but in my original post I detailed a number of reasons why I believe that Taylor shows traits of a "god complex." It was a bit of a throwaway comment to sum up a long post based on characteristics Taylor has shown with his management style and the players reaction to it. It obviously wasn't any sort of diagnosis so I found it a bit odd that you chose that one thing to focus on out of the long winded rant that I had written before it.
I am genuinely interested to know your thoughts about our managers performance other than you think everyone that is criticising Taylor is doing so based on emotion and anger because we choked against Wednesday.
Admittedly, I was very angry and very disgusted but I saw Sunday as a line in the sand as opposed to a knee jerk reaction. I've supported Taylor to "happy clapper" levels prior to this and thought after the character shown to battle back against Southampton and the way we took control against Coventry, that Taylor had finally turned a corner with his tactical choices. Sunday proved that wasn't the case and to be honest his starting line up left me absolutely numb. To start that formation against a struggling, low on confidence Owls side smacks of either extreme incompetence or extreme arrogance. I went with the latter because it seems to fit the current narrative with how the players are reacting.
I have always enjoyed your posts too and I commend your optimism and loyalty to the club. I found myself siding with you many times when Warne was getting undeserved hate back in the day. But sadly, my patience is running thin with Taylor for the reasons I've explained and whilst I have never liked the manager merry go round as a way to resolve problems, how else can we turn things around if performances under Taylor don't dramatically improve?
PS. If Taylor does have a god complex then I have an imposter complex, I woke up today believing I'm Derbymiller ;D
