memoir pt. 5 edits: tie off Xu reply; trim Scott vs. Vassarites intro
A while back, coach took issue with my "raw factional conflict"
characterization, arguing instead that Scott was just saying what
everyone else was too polite to, that Jessica is nuts.
I don't care that much about defending my view here, which suggests
saving wordcount by cutting that graf-and-a-half and transitioning
directly to my defense that being a Vassarite didn't harm me (which I
do care about and is worth the wordcount).
