And the IRS is the authority. It’s not a discussion, it’s not a negotiation, there’s no bargaining.
And “everyone” was wrong.
"Is it truly so inconceivable to you that people could be rightfully-pissed about potential future liabilities resulting from an incomprehensible code despite their best attempt to follow said code and continue to do as they already are and pay their taxes?

How incredibly narrow-minded."
I give up. You’re just being dense.
