A comment to the original post: The Brisker Rov Zatzal used to say “I never criticize people I only criticize actions” so it’s like you said, the issues raised are not meant (or should not be meant) to criticize anyone either personally or as a group, and therefore are not “loshon horah on klal yisroel” or on anyone for that matter, and don’t even go into the discussion of don lekaf zechus because we are not discussing those who do it rather the issue itself.
Thus there is no reason for anyone to get offended either.
