Agreed completely.  British American is a bunch of thieves.  (Just what I
expect of publishers, and I've been a freelance writer for most of 25 years.
Most of them just do it with a little more polish.)  But that doesn't say
anything about Williams (beyond a certain lack of taste in choosing his
publisher/representative, and I have plenty of sympathy for that), much
less about his skill as a trader or his honesty as a teacher (for which I
have
only second-hand reports, all of them positive), and least of all about his
record in the trading contest.

You have made a valid point.  But most of the folks who complain about
Williams, rather than British American, are just giving us the traders
version of "Mine may be only two inches long, but his isn't as big as
people think, and besides, he's lying when he says he can get it up."
Or so it always sounds to me.
