Well, there's rather less between comment and chide than there is between
comment and demand, I guess.
I'd say
"NELUG may find that their policy may be detrimental in the long run"
is a comment,
"NELUG are very wrong to not immediately change their policy"
is shading over to a chide, and
"NELUG MUST change their policy immediately"
is rather a demand, wouldn't you say?
That's my take.
